Good morning Thursday

Postby Ally » 14 Apr 2022, 05:53

Good morning.

As is usual at Easter it seems to think it's summer and today is no exception with 27C forecast. :lol:

And with that in mind my walk will be done and dusted early. :P

I'll have a swim early afternoon.

5pm we'll be at the church watching the first parade starting. A huge Trono, 100 men carrying it, will be brought out of the church, and this, along with many others, will be carried through town and goes on till 3am.

It's very atmospheric and my favourite of the Spanish traditions.

We'll have dinner somewhere around 10 then afterwards catch up with whichever parade is nearest to us.

It'll be a late one for sure. :lol:

Have a great day.

Nowhere near MM. That's up further north and a different Costa. :lol:

One of the reasons we (Don in particular) chose the tip of southern Spain was for the sunshine. 8-)

Tell her to get down here. :lol:

Morning everyone

Sunny, but with a brisk breeze. Warming up nicely now, 24C later but down to 8C tonight :shock:

Pottering in the garden once it warms up. Will transplant the two daisies and more weeding :roll:

Also make a curry for Saturday 8-)

Don't spoil him Cruiser, normal biscuits will do ;)

Have a good day everyone, whatever you're doing xx

Morning all :D

Bright and sunny 8-)

Enjoy the parade Ally, we saw one in Malta some years ago, quite spectacular.
What a shame for your friend MM, the weather looks awful in Alicante at the moment.
Have a lovely time with your son Cruiser.
You're very welcome to come and do some weeding here Jan.
Glad to hear Scarlett is back to her usual bouncy self Saundra.

We're off out to Westwood Cross and M&S later. Don't need a lot, just a few bits, we stocked up last week.

Hope you all have a good day xx

Usual Thursday shopping trip to Sainsbury's, I did some housework first. Got stuff in the dryer ( too murky today for the washing line) and once that's dry I will iron it. No Pilates tonight as it's school holidays.

Take care everyone :) xx
