A ' FRESH' WARM & SUNNY MANILVA ON TUESDAY.

TUESDAY 3^rd/ MARCH 2020.

We managed a little lie in this morning before we were woken up by neighbours talking outside in the street, both ‘ Chico’ & ‘ Lolo’ slept all night, they then wait while we freshen up and take them out for their first walk of the day around the bottom of the village, when we returned we had our usual toast & tea before getting another day on the go down here on the ‘ Costa Del Sol’

This morning the sun was out early and the sky is practically cloudless and blue, there is cooling breeze, so by lunchtime it’s forecast to  only reach 18/19 degs+ - overnight down to 10/11 degs+ - tomorrow as the breeze drops it’s back up to 22 degs+ - the rest of the week and over the coming weekend is staying warm & sunny, with a few patchy clouds at times, hovering in the high ‘ teens’ – next week as the next ‘Atlantic front blows in, it’s starting a little wet & windy, back down to the mid ‘ teens’- towards the end of the week picking up again, with warm sunshine, watch this space.

At lunchtime I’m taking our friend Andy across to Estepona as he needs to call into his Bank, which happens to be ours also, on the way back I’m calling into Sabinillas to have my mobile phone updated to a ‘ Pay As You Go ‘ system, the same as Brenda’s – yesterday I managed to change/update our new landline/house number with the ‘ Costa Del Sol Hospital’ – so fingers crossed we are all up to date with the new ‘OliveNet ‘ system, watch this space.

                                            PS; A REMINDER OF OUR NEW HOUSE NUMBER – 951 567 542 !

                                                AND NOW MY NEW MOBILE  NUMBER - 602 147 884 !!

For our supper this evening we are having ‘Pan- Seared Lambs Liver’ – dusted in seasoned flour and ‘ flash’ cooked on a very hot griddle-pan, served with ‘Grilled English Pork Sausages’ and ‘Crispy Smoked Bacon’ – garnished with seared Button Mushrooms & Tomato, accompanied with a sauceboat of a rich ‘Red Wine, Onion & Shallot Gravy’ – served with Glazed Baby Carrots and Thinly Sliced ‘ French’ Green Beans – not forgetting the dish of ‘Boulangere’ Potatoes!

On Wednesday I’m making, for ‘ National Pie Week’ my now famous “ Chicken & Mushroom ‘Tarragon’ Pie “  - topped with a crusty Puff-Pastry lid! For our supper on Friday it’s going to be my famous ‘ Fish Pie ‘ which of course is topped with Brenda’s famous ‘ Mashed Potato ‘ topping!

We are having a nice relaxing afternoon, taking things very easy and then after supper we will channel hop to find something to watch,  last night the ‘ The Split’ was very gripping and moving as all the ‘ infidelity/adultery ’ was finally brought out into the open, of the family & clients!

Thoughts for the Day;  See above.
