    Aloha everyone,

    Guess what - more pressure washing today :heehee:. Sainsbury's delivery put away and I'm off to the library and some market stalls. I also have a lot of cooking to do today. Plus picking beans and courgettes. The beans should be doing well enough soon for me to start selling them.

    Keep well :biggrin:

    Aloha!

      Best wishes for tomorrow @moyra. Here, for Driving License renewal, you have to have a Doctor's Certificate at ages 65, 70, 72, 74, etc. Basically it is general health, what do you take, blood pressure, eye test. T'other Half went for his Monday. Doctor does it on line now.

        Aloha everyone,

        It's dull but is drying up after the heavy rain in the night. It's forecast to start again just about the time I shall be at a funeral. :sad:

        @moyra good luck with your eye test. :blue thumb:

        Keep safe :biggrin:

        Aloha!

            Morning everyone, ,we are currently under the spell of Evert and a weather warning. The winds are noisily picking up speed as it moves across the south coast this morning, now at 43mph and rattling the windows.

            Hope all goes well today for you @moyra .

              Good morning all and Thank you for your support. I certainly need it, not over confidant that my eyesight is up to the standard. But we shall see, the capsules I am taking have definitely improved my vision.
              Have a good day all, take care, and stay safe and well. God bless.:wub2:

                In Yorkshire I used to complain that I hated winter because I woke up every couple of days ...
                Lanjarón, after dozing gently for months, is now preparing to pull the duvet over its head and sleep soundly for a couple of weeks. Shops will present blank dark faces to the few pedestrians, a search will be necessary to locate the one bar open that day, and those with a cortijo on the campo will get back to Nature.
                Long semi-fluorescent winding lines of walkers will string out along the mountain tracks, and large parties will wander through my garden as I eavesdrop shamelessly on their exclamations of delight, and round up the occasional strays.
                Someone who walks unchallenged through the lower garden is my neighbour, who lives across the canyon, and needs to take a short cut. He let a fire on his land get out of hand last April, and it was close to setting the whole mountain on fire. He was subsequently fined three thousand Euros, and having a very light footprint in the world of Capitalism he will not be able to pay. He is keeping a very low profile, hence perhaps his short cut -- but he needs to feed his massed choir of stray dogs which entertains his neighbours at all times of day and night. Some sort of community service may eventually be imposed, but sweeping the street might not go down too well with a man used to hunting wild boar in the Sierras.

                      Aloha everyone,

                      @moyra I hope yesterday went OK :)

                      Mrs Shiney has just added someone else to my 'meals on wheels service' :rolleyespink:. This one will be eating here. It's a friend of hers that is not getting on with her husband (hasn't done for decades) and is not eating much and losing weight and has some chronic health problems. I've been delegated to help the situation. :noidea:

                      Yesterday's funeral went well, apart from the weather, and the service was held outside (for Covid reasons) with well over 100 people.

                      I'm off to do the shopping for all the cooking.

                      Take care :biggrin:

                      Aloha!
