Monday....Tuesday....Wednesday






























































Well that was a different birthday - got up went to bank and then gym, back home and by 10 we were on the road to Yunquera to sort out my leccy bill, I have had a year of estimates and just before leaving for Scotland they decided to read it and the bill arrived the day I got back, it would have gone through the bank a few days earlier, and of course there weren't enough funds, so need to speak with endessa so I can pay so much a month blah blah, so nearest officina is up up up and round round round the mountain to get to Yunquera only to be told they don't deal with it any more I need to go to Pizarra or Coin, well back down down down and round round round again and off to Pizarra, the computer is down so can't do anything I will need to phone - a few expletives here - then to the garden centre for a coffee and tapas, leave there to head home, turn the key to start Cecil [the citroen] nadir not a squeak, so we start to push, joined by another lady then a guy, then a car pulls in a 2 very nice young men jump out and take over, bump started - 2 n.y.m jump back in their, fairly beat up ancient motor and drive off, talk about 2 angels appearing a the right time, thanks D xx Stop at supermarket in village, not thinking and same again, very elderly man with stick and shopping hobbles over and helps as does another lady and finally home - Cecil is now sitting facing down the road!! We walked up to the Piscina for lunch, phone call rom Wendy to say she is in village, so we wound our way down to Oasis after a very good lunch, Dougie told me no dog, so Wendy and I sat outside with our wine and caught up on 2 months of absence, a couple of hours of talking??!! I wandered home bumped into Africa, Carmen and Remy who proceeded to sing Happy Birthday very loudly in the street to me - oh blush - I invited them back, Carmen bought cakes - yummy, Zoe joined the party - much dancing and merriment and woke late this morning.........
Yes we did phone endessa, which cost an arm and a leg only to finally get hold of someone who says that they can't do anything either, it is the bank who sorts it out for me arrrrrrrrggggggg
Thank You Meloni your card arrived right on time, much love to you xx
Thanks to you to Val xx I am glad the Harley Bee is a fruit lover :) Thinking of you lots!!
Tuesday was a quiet day LOL, although I was up and about fairly early as I had asked the vet to pop down and start Squidge on her course of injections for her passeporte, our village vet is married to the guy who runs the restauraunt at the piscina so she is always to be found up there serving and helping out, so as we ate up there the previous day I took the opportunity to start the process, so having dropped her children of at school walked down to me and did the deed. Later Julio called by for a chat and cuppa as Amanda is back to work till Friday - Ruth decided to start her 3 day fast!! Her brother and nephew are arriving next Tuesday - a German invasion hahahaha BUT is great for me as her brother likes fixing cars - how fortuitous is that!! I shall also ask them to collect some wood for me woo hoo, 2 strong men who, at least Ruth tells me, will be happy to do this; the following Tuesday Linda and her son arrive from Edinburgh - gonna be a full hoose :)
Obviously I didn't make it to the gym on Tuesday but I was back to normal [whatever that may mean] Wed and met up with Jules when she finished work for a coffee and catch up - Ruth has been reading and snoozing her way through her fast, only way to do it!! And already feeling heaps better.
Lots of rain Tuesday night and as I write this the heavens have opened again, everywhere looks washed clean and smells so fresh......
Brightest Blessings to one and all, we are ALL being offered many choices now - ENJOY xx
