My family had a lovely dinner last night in the Pueblo at Nino's. We then went on to the Feria in another part of the Pueblo and were treated to an excellent Spanish band/group playing and singing Spanish pop songs. They were really talented, especially the lead singer who was a hell of a mover too. Really enjoyed it all.

The family have all gone shopping and probably taking lunch in Myramar, leaving me on my own to write more of my novel. We're BBQing tonight. My son in law Andrew is a dab hand at BBQs so I can sit back and relax. Both my grandchildren have Ipads so they keep themselves amused. Modern technology - unbelievable the aps that they download and what they can do. They watch films and allsorts on these things....Christmas is not far away, wonder if I'll get one, would like a 64 bit one....hint hint !

Talking of technology, I asked my grandson to pass me the newspaper last night. He said in a very adult manner, "Look old boy, we don't use newspapers anymore, use my Ipad". He handed it to me. That fly never knew what hit it........!!!!

An elderly grandfather had just passed on. The granddaughter visited Grandma to comfort her. "What happened Grandma? I know he was 94 but it was still very sudden", Grandma replied, "It happened whilst we were having sex on sunday morning". "What? having sex at your age?" said the Granddaughter incredulously. "Well we used to do it every sunday morning. We'd do it leisurely in time to the church bells tolling. He'd be alive today if it hadn't been for that bloody ice cream van going past !"

Hope you have a peaceful and pleasant weekend.
