WEDNESDAY 22nd/ APRIL 2020. “ STATE OF ALARM – DAY 39 "
“ WORLD EARTH DAY 2020 “
After freshening up as I was on the
breakfast rota this morning I had a ‘ Toasted Sausage Butty ‘ – smothered in ‘HP’
Brown sauce – open on brown for Brenda, with mugs of very hot/strong tea to set
us up for the day ahead! Brenda cooked-off more ‘ English Pork Sausages’ yesterday
so as we could have them for our breakfast this morning!
After the rain storms had passed over us
yesterday, this morning we have a glorious start to today, the sun was out
first thing, the clouds have cleared, there is a light breeze and the sky is
bright blue, so by lunchtime it’s forecast to reach 21 degs+ - overnight down
to 14 degs+ - tomorrow a little cooler, but still dry & sunny, as the
breeze picks up, over the weekend it’s still hovering in the high ‘ teens’ but
with the chance of patchy rain and going cloudy again, next week is now looking
mixed,
with sunshine and showers, light breezes and still up in the high ‘ teens’ by
next weekend back up to 22/23 degs+ - watch this space.
“ CORONAVIRUS UPDATE – COVID 19 PANDEMIC “
The Spanish ‘ National Coalition Government
‘ have announced overnight, after doing a ‘ U-Turn’ - that here in Spain, where we are under the
strictest ‘LOCKDOWN’ in the World, that from this coming Sunday, the 26th
April – when the ‘ LOCKDOWN’ will be extended to until the May 9th –
that children aged 14 and under, will be allowed to leave their homes for accompanied
walks, 15 to 17 olds will be able to carry them out alone, earlier in the day it
had said that minors would only be able to leave the house to go to the
supermarket, pharmacy or bank with a parent or guardian! Watch this space.
At lunchtime our dear friend Leah is going
along to try and get through to the ‘Iceland/Overseas’ supermarket, along the
coast, just past Sotogrande, in ‘Pueblo Nuevo de Guadiaro ‘ for some ‘ English’
essentials for all of us! ‘Fingers Crossed’ that the ‘Policia Local &
National’ as well as the ‘ Guardia Civil & the Spanish Foreign Legion’ are
in a good mood!! Watch this space.
Today it’s ‘ World Earth Day ‘ – an annual
event created to celebrate the planet’s environment and raise awareness about
pollution, which at this time is even more important, as this morning in the
news and in all the newspapers is showed the results of the ‘ Lockdown’ from
around the World, as all the major cities etc as well as the outside World have
cleared the mists/air pollutions and are now bright & beautiful again for
the first time in this century!
The ‘ Council’ have this morning here in
sunny Manilva held their monthly ‘Council’ meeting via a ‘Zoom’ video link-up, at
the same time the ‘Cleaning’ work force were washing down, sanitizing and
humidifying all the street in the village, again, after the storms had passed.
At the moment they are sanitizing all our streets and houses ! See below;
As usual as I have been typing/posting
today’s Blog I have been listening to the ‘ Lockdown Party Show’ via ‘ Castle
Radio FM 89.2 & Online on the WWW’ – I didn’t get the ‘ Mystery Voice’ this
morning, but I got the ‘Music Intro Quiz’ – it was the ‘ Pet Shop Boys’ with ‘West
End Girls’ – near the end of the show they played one of my favourite ‘ George Thorogood
& The Destroyers’ tracks – “ Who Do Love “ – which I played very ‘ LOUD’-
as the two speakers on my Mixing Desk as well the large Subwoffer’ vibrated ! I
was then ‘ told-off ‘ by Brenda for disturbing all the neighbours – nothing that
I can’t handle!! When you get the chance play the track ‘ LOUD’!!
PS; The new phone has just been delivered !
PPS; And is now working!!
This evening for our supper we are having ‘
Grilled Gammon Steaks’ topped with seared Pineapple Rings, garnished with
seared Button Mushrooms and topped with a ‘ Campo’ Fried Egg, served with
Garden Peas and of course triple-cooked ‘ Chips’ accompanied with ‘HP’ Brown
sauce. Tomorrow evening it’s ‘Omelettes of Choice’ with a Baked Potato.
“ STAY SAFE & WELL INSIDE AT ALL TIMES “
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
