D'you know, it's really easy to go off some people...
Big lightning in these places, not leaving it plugged in is a good idea.I rang Neil to come and fix my TV which for some reason wasn't working.
Sorted in 2 minutes...not plugged in.
I once made a load of rhubarb wine. It was truly vile, but I failed to dispose of it and thought I would try it again, when I found the stash 18 months later. It was the nicest white wine that I've ever tasted.Just made some rhubarb gin. Apparently it takes 2 weeks to 'mature'.

As found in another thread, I picked some damsons for @age'd parent last year. He gave me 6 bottles of Damson wine when it was ready. Left it 6 months to mature a bit, if i'm honest it was slightly sour, had a bottle last week and it was pure nectar. I'm not a wine drinker at all. but that was bluddy lovely.

Life can be so damn hard at times...Yesterday (Sunday) was glorious weather here in Spain so I spent most of the day with the promised "me time" on the balcony reading and enjoying the sun.
Popped down to the pool for a swim so that I didn't feel too guilty about doing nothing much.
Today it was cloudy but no worries, it was still warm enough.
David, a neighbour came round because it's the AGM soon, he's on the committee and we've given him our proxy vote.
Had a nice natter with him then I popped off to pay our community fees.
Then I took a walk along the boardwalk by the beach, stopped off at the first chiringuito for a cafe con leche, a read of my book and a bit of people watching.
This afternoon I went back to Fuengirola and walked away from the main promenade and main tourist area, along the narrow alleyways and back streets. I just strolled for hours eventually getting lost. Found some lovely courtyards and plazas that I want to revisit with husband if I can find them again.
Back home to the apartment, it's colder tonight, still got a lovely view.
Cava again..... but why not?
