The beginning of Monday

 Monday cometh and another week in the sun commences. Little to do but then again I am retired. I have a few projects on the go, thus the mind is kept active...really prioritizing the language learning (he said typing in English) However working on the resurrected blog keeps me busy.....

With new phone a video may sneak onto these pages, can you wait?

Stay safe people.

The end of Sunday

The end of Sunday 

Warm and Sunday, most of today, here and yet all manner of weather problems around the world. Maybe the weather Gods are letting us off lightly for good behaviour.

Football today, small provincial club called Mensajero, as you will see a few photos of the ambience on this blog, a few more coming throughout the week. Sometimes I even get paid!!!! but usually I just send the club a few images which they use for their publicity, in return I havent paid entrance money in all my days on the Islands. Sometimes am invited to away games which invariably involves flying but if the team loses the return journey is very subdued, although. 

This little island is really quite a closed shop, the Palmeros suspicious of strangers where Fuerteventura was not quite so difficult to integrate and be not quite accepted but more a necessary evil, as tourist euros shore up the economy. The Spanish community of course are accustomed to sunburned English whom are only interested in a week or so of debachery, and thus we are all tarred withe same brush. However one such as yours truly who has no intention to go back to my home country, has all documents etc up to date reflecting that indeeed I am making the effort which seems to be the way forward

Anyay enough babble for one day...


Talk tomorrow?. 

victory at last...Mensajero 4 - 1 Guadalajara

day 4...

 nothing has changed 


Putin still sending his people to die, the Ukranian counterpart  responding, however I think the latter is more just in his defense.

Makes me wonder.

Now the so called Holy Land in on the act, I remind myself everyday just how lucky I am well out of the way. 

Currently the biggest problem I have is attempting to control the garden or should I say jungle, which amazingly is still producing oranges, lemons and the bells of Saint Clemins (humor) 

Anyhoo dear reader, the eyelids are leaden time for  the return ticket ...I hope ...to a peaceful night

goodnight

Tuesday Day 2 Tidings of comfort and joy.

Day number 2 of 2024...so what has changed? Revelations about a scary new missle that Putin can launch from anywhere and it can orbit the earth for ever until some commander orders it to despatch its nuclear lunch box.

I gleaned this from a frightened Méxican broadcasting on YouTube, so it must be true ...must be?

He seemed to be deep into his research, and authentic was his comportamiento...(I use Spanish words when the English escapes) .So be afraid from the sabre rattler from Moscow. 

Words of comfort and joy indeed.

Goodnight, sleep tight.
