Sunday BBQ day-no wonder it rained

We had one large rib eye steak left in the freezer which we need to eat up before we leave here Thursday morning and so we decided as its Sunday , that can be BBQ Day.

Well as the title suggests it rained, in fact it rained cats & dogs both in the late afternoon, early and late evening and then overnight so now the swimming pool is close to overflowing and no doubt the heating system will have a struggle to catch up with the temperature change. So after a very successful bibs lunch so rib eye steak, one easily feeds two of us and one huge Idaho potato, even that defeated both of us, and with a glass or two of nice Malbec we were set for the evening. Due to the heavy rain it was quite dark at about 4.30 pm so we decided to watch a film to pass the time of day. Our one month free Amazon Prime and Netflix free trials are coming to an end in a couple of days so we will try to watch what e can if its any good but as with Sky Moving, one film is good and the 85 or so are rubbish.  We stared watching a fil with an intriguing title which the write up said was banned in France?? only to find it was a black & white move that was banned in 1966, could not see why but we stopped watching after ten minutes or so. 
We are now getting to the point of finishing up all the food stocks we had built up as we shall be leaving the house on Thursday morning and heading ‘up north’ to Clearwater area where we shall spend two nights and visit a great crab restaurant called Crabby Bill’s which we had visited several times when staying with Adrian & Joyce, and so we are looking forward to visiting again. Tomorr4ow we are going to look at another house which we might consider for next year should we decide to return to Florida, we shall as we have also thought of South Africa or even stay poss for a few days with friends who are currently building a house by the sea at a place called SEASIDE. Oh well to many choices whilst Florida is easy to get around and its cheaper getting here than to South Africa.
Glad to see Chelsea beat Newcastle yesterday after the disappointment of losing to Arsenal and what with rumours about the Manager Mr Conte and possible new players we shall have to see, somebody started a rumour that Ronaldo wants to leave Real Madrid and would/could play for Chelsea, but let us see as it could be more of Mr Trumps fake news.
The stay in Florida has been good for us both what with regular walking and swimming and Jennifer has lost a little bit of weight whilst Noel refuses to stand on the scales for the moment. Well that's it for the moment and now looking forward tyo rest of the day relaxing in the sun and swimming.
