The hot weather has returned. Swimming in the pool is the only way to cool off. Regular swimming is taking away Pauline's pain in her femur. It must be healing. Mind you, it is now obvious she has a return of the spinal stenosis, but that pain can be treated once she is over her leg pain.
Last night I barbecued some lamb chops and fried some left over potatoes. They were very tasty! This must sound dreadful to those at home and experiencing gales. It is good news that, at long last, there is progress with Pauline's leg. After all she broke it nearly 18 months ago. Today is a special day. It is our granddaughter Isabel's 15th birthday and also exactly 9 years since we moved to Anglesey. In a short time (1st October) we celebrate our 47th wedding anniversary.
Today we have been swimming/reading/swimming/reading. I was so wound up at the long journey we were making and now we are getting the benefit of rest. Of course, there will be the journey home starting on Friday and ending Tuesday evening.
I went to the shop in Colmenar this morning and got what was needed in food terms to last the week out. Guess what I forgot - bbq fuel!!! The Spanish call it simply carbon. I shall have to make another trip to Colmenar tomorrow to ensure we don't run out of fuel. Lunches usually consist of good bread with butter, Serrano ham, cheese and tomatoes washed down with San Miguel. This beer might be rubbish, Kevin , but it lubricates the throat. For breakfast we have discovered a new cereal from Eroski hypermarket - flakes with dried fruit including strawberries. But we don't forget our boiled eggs and toast!
Can't spend any more time chatting - the pool is calling!!!
