MONDAY 20th/ JULY 2020. “ NEW NORMALITY – DAY 29 “
Just a little lie in this morning after
another very close & ‘ sticky’ night, while we were freshening up I was
listening to the ‘ Lockdown Party’ show on ‘ mix106fm’ as ‘ Castle Radio FM
89.2’ is off-line at the moment due to technical difficulties, the ‘ Mystery
Voce’ quiz came on, it was very easy today, Andrew Lloyd Webber, on Friday it
was James Nesbitt, see below.
As usual on a Monday morning I’m on the
breakfast rota so I had my favourite ‘ Toasted Crispy Smoked Bacon Butty ‘ (
White Bread ) – open on Brown Toast for Brenda, with her favourite
sliced/seared Button Mushrooms, tossed in the Bacon juices with a knob of
Butter, some of which ended up in my Butty, with mugs of hot/strong Tea to
start the week off!
It was then time for me to retire upstairs
to the office/studio, first to go online and read the newspapers, check all the
‘E-Mails/Facebook’ messages etc, before editing my ‘ Crib Notes/Bullet Points’ as
I then type/post today’s Blog.
We have a problem, again, with our ‘Landline’
– which is permanently engaged and not accepting calls, I have called ‘ OliveNet’
to report it, watch this space.
NB; I called the ‘Helpline’ and the problem
was fixed straight away, the engineer re-configured the landline system and
then called me back – “ RESULT “!
We were then able to call our English Bank
( HSBC) over in Colwyn Bay, North Wales,
to arrange our regular transfer of some annuities into our Spanish Bank ( Bank
Popular ) down in Sabinillas. “ RESULT “!!
At the start of the week, the sun was out
early and the sky is cloudless & blue, with a light breeze, by lunchtime it’s
due to reach 29/30 degs+ - overnight only dropping down to 21/22 degs+ - tomorrow
will be the same, then on Wednesday its going warmer each day, with lots of
very hot sunshine, hovering in the low/mid 30s, by the weekend going a little
cooler as the breeze pick up, next week we are in for another ‘ Hot-One’ – all week
in the low/mid 30s - with clear skies and lots of hot sunshine,
with just slight breezes at times, watch this space.
Over in Everett, Ontario, Canada, Sandra
& Bill yesterday published on ‘ Facebook’ pictures of the spectacular
house, for ‘ Any of her city friends looking to move North? Going on the market
soon... one hour to Toronto Pearson International Airport ‘ – ‘ Not that we can go anywhere yet’ !
See below:
Just a quick update on the weekend football
results; Chelsea won 1-3 & play Arsenal in the Final of the ‘FA Cup’ – over
here in ‘La Liga’ Real Madrid, the Champions, could only draw 2-2 with lowly
Leganes, as Barcelona won 0-5 and Lionel Messi won his seventh ‘ Golden Boot’ –
his fourth in a row, after scoring 25 goals in the ‘ La Liga’ this season!
For our supper this evening we are having
the rest of the Roast Chicken, from ‘ El Pastaña’ Rotisserie, with a selection
of Mixed Salads and our ‘ Ensaladilla Rusa’ – the ‘Menus’ for the rest of the
week- we are taking one day at the time, watch this space.
PS; See below how our ‘ Champagne Cellar ‘
would look, as a display, they would be of course laid-down – the large bottle (?) is the World famous ‘ Perrier-Jouet Belle Epoque ‘ – we have the – hand-painted
flute glasses to drink if from!
The ' Sizes '
“STAY SAFE & WELL INSIDE AT ALL TIMES –
IN SELF LOCKDOWN HERE & MASKED”
Thoughts for the Day; See above.
