we are

Phone call from Mitchell earlier this afternoon. Not see you for a long time, (just over a week, really ) how are you? Cue chats about the fuel strike, diesel, petrol, how many chickens he now has.

Are you going down the bar later? No, I said, too hot. Oh, such a shame, I'll be there in about an hour So off we go, get there about 4.30.

Lots of more chatting, the Festa in Ourique, how hot it is, various bods came and we all had lots of chatting, as is normal there How someone can be carbonized - there was a nasty accident on the IC1 this morning and the driver was burnt

Then Mitchell casually drops into the conversation that he has to renew his residencia next month. I know, as I made the appointment for him and it's on my calendar, in case he forgets

You have to go anyway, don't you, he said to Grumpy, as you need to renew your driving licence. You drive, I'll pay for the petrol

So we're of to Beja next month, we can do both, as they're next door to each other in the same building and we can then do Lidl and Bricomarche.

He can buy the coffee and maybe lunch, although we don't normally do lunch.

Mates

When we got home, it was straight into the pool again. Grumpy just stripped off by the pool and jumped in That was heaven, sheer heaven

Not him stripping orf, just the water he needs to lose about 6 stone before it's heaven

That's lovely friend s you have Jan will grumpy ever lose 6stone

Nope

got to love Mitch

Typical bloke - not the selective hearing but the selective remembering stuff

He can't remember what he ate yesterday, but ask him about something he needs to do...……………...…….
