After another good night at Lentisco’s, last night, we awoke late and found that it was raining. I rang round and we aborted tennis (what a wimp I hear you say) and so it turned out to be. We set off to Heurcal Overa to shop anyway and by the time we got there it was dry warm and the sun was shining. I felt really guilty that we had called the tennis off, must be more brave next week.
From yesterday you will know that we arranged today to collect loads of dosh from the bank in Mojacar. I had asked the manager what time they close and he said two thirty, this is normal winter closing time for all banks. We were in Mojacar for one o’clock and because we had loads of time we shopped a little and had a meal, outside in the sun, at a café on the seafront. We went to the bank at two fifteen only to find the place shut and deserted. So we now have to go all the way back down there tomorrow (a round trip of 140km) Grrrrrrrr!!!! as well as still doing the other dozen things that we had planned to do already tomorrow and before Christmas. How did we find time to work as well?
The builders have been up again this afternoon, finishing off marking out the plot and the foundations, it looks enormous. He says that the JCB ‘might come manana’ to dig out the trenches.
There was snow cover on the high peaks this morning, the sun has now burnt it off but it looked spectacular.
Yet another party night tonight, what a life!
