A nice relaxing day


The weather was a little grey today and so following breakfast in the apartment we set about to do pretty much nothing during the day. Jennifer spent some time reading whilst the writer spent some hours catching up with photos and updating SmugMug and also starting the Blogging which had stopped due Coved, new knee new house and garden and many other reasons.

Sometimes when blogging if you do not do it on the same day or the following day but leave it a few days you end up scratching your head wondering what you did three days ago and so we we try to do on a daily basis particularly as we hope to start travelling again in February next year on or Cariban Cruise and hope their are no more Covid restrictions implemented in the meantime.

The Trevoso Golf Club apartments are really very nice and quite cheap this time of year and so we will certainly try to come here again.

For dinner we went down to the local pub The farmers Arms and had a good meal, well Jennifer had the Steak and Ale pie whilst Noel had to have Fish and Chips again as many other items on the menu have garlic or onions in them.  I plan to get in touch with the local health centre to see if there are any pills or medicine which would allow my body to eat and handle Glucose-Sucrose etc etc as t would my eating habits much better and give me a much wider choice of food to eat as at the moment the FODMAP diet is quite restrictive.

Once we had returned to the room after dinner we watched a documentary series on the rise and and fall of the the famous ‘Chippendales Men Strippers’ quite interesting really and we will watch the remaining parts on Tuesday evening.

I am pretty pissed off with the way the French and UK governments are not handling the refugee crisis on the border, there will be trouble ahead if something is not done soon as refugees seem to be jumping the queue for housing over locals who have waited for many years. May be I should stop reading the newspapers??
