Summer's Here !
Sunday, July 14, 2013 @ 11:32 AM

Well, I can honestly say that the summer is here on the CDS. Temperatures now regularly over 30 degrees, and the pool is my favourite parking spot.

Schwazenegger has a big one

Michael J. Fox has a small one

Madonna doesn't have one

The Pope has one but doesn't use it

Bill Clinton used his all the time

Mickey Mouse has an unusual one

George Burns' was hot

Liberace never used his on women

Jerry Seinfeld is very proud of his

We never saw Lucy use Desi's

WHAT IS IT?

The Answer?.............................A last name ! (Don't tell me you were thinking of something else?????!!!!)

Just got our electricity bill in, 295€ for 2 months. As we were away for 2 weeks in the UK I don't know if that's good or bad. We haven't had the aircon on either.

My lady and I, and two close friends, went to La Nina restaurant in the Plaza in Benalmadena Pueblo last evening for dinner. We enjoyed a really good meal (3 courses), some. but not a lot of alcohol, plus water and bread etc. The total with a 10% tip came to 110€, which, considering the excellent quality of the food and very good waiter service, was fantastic value we all thought. We recommend it.

As the shops here are all open for the next six weeks on Sundays we are going to spend some money today. In this good Catholic country Sundays are religiously observed by no shops opening except when the tourist season is upon us. One presumes that God has sanctioned this money making extra opening scenario. I scanned the Bible but couldn't see any mention of it....I must have missed it.....

I shall be on BBC Radio next week, on either Monday or Wednesday afternoon, being interviewed to publicise my new novel "The Wednesday Women" which is just out. This book is a crime thriller set in Norfolk.

Until next time,    Placido Domingo.
