Hi!
We have been keeping fairly busy the last few weekends, and seems we will be for the next few to come too.
We have been out for a few meals, went to a medievil festival at the castle which was mainly crafts and food (you could have a go on a diabolo so i just smuggly laughted at everyone doing it really badly)We have been dropping people off at the airport, watering plants for people on holiday, played Spanish bowles (patank), watched the bourne ultimatum at the cinema, broken my scooter and taken it to be fixed, had a spanish lesson, eaten icecream and yesterday we went to the pub and michael played pool and i went to the beach with my camera and took some photies. And i made mushroom, tomatoe and chorizo omlette for dinner.And some flapjack.

We should be going on holiday on saterday to Portugal. Then when we get back on thursday Jane from keycamp is coming to stay for a bit.

So busy busy, Good job i have a few free afternoons this week!

Chillies and chicken

So im getting over the buzz of Harry Potter but i might still go and watchthe film again if its still on.
I had a pretty busy weekend last week, I got up early on saterday because some idiots wereshouting really loudly at about 8.30, so we went shopping similar mundane saterday type things. Then i made michael take me to a garden center up in the mountains near alhurin. All the hillsides look brown and dry, i think we could do with some english rain to stop the fires. Anyways i got all exited because i acctually got one of those garden center trolly things and filled it with plants and soil and pots and a tomato and a chillie plant (Michael later discovered that the chillies are really hot!) Oh and we had a Cana (beer) in the cafe (Spains alternative to campachino i guess)
Then i spent ages potting and pottering with the plants. Even michale goes and waters my plants in the evening. My basil and mint is taking over the balcony, its huge!

In the evening we went to the tapas festival but it was a bit of a let down, but we had some beer and a big german sausage which made everything alright. (oh and some of those really good almondy morrocan sweets)

For some unknown reason i decided to get up early yet again on sunday and go to the driving range with michael. He went on the practice court and i spent some quality time with nature. Other that walking up a mountain the golf course is about the closest you get around here. It made me want to go for a walk in the woods (i am Lagolas of the woodland realm!)
I did have ago at hitting a ball with a stick but i was really crap. Its obvously because im left handed and they were right handed sticks!

Sunday evening was spent watching Borat (?!?) and eating a yummy roast dinner ( i made the stuffing and peeled the carrots!).
I have therfore eaten cold roast chicken for the last 2 days.
