Victoria
and James were leaving this morning, so we went up to Moca for a full English
breakfast to keep them going for the rest of the day.
When we
got back the travellers decided that they would leave to be better safe than
sorry. I hate it when visitors leave
(well nearly always!!) and I felt very close to tears. Muffin is very much a “pack” dog and sees
Richard, me and Victoria as his pack at home and it was the same here. He sat on the step waiting for them to come
back for ages – it made me feel even sadder.
I felt
sad all day – Victoria and I are very close, and I just felt as if part of me
had gone too.
I had
arranged to have my hair cut at 5pm and was a little worried as I have had the
same hairdresser for 19 years and I wasn’t sure if the chap who was going to
cut it would be OK!! I was concerned all
the way through the cut as he was doing it very differently to how Jane would
do it, but it turned out just fine! Jane
had taken photos after my last cut with her and it looked almost the same.

A
fabulous Mojacar day 😊
The sun was shining as Richard drew back the curtains and it stayed like
that all day. I spent the morning
catching up on things and getting the washing done.
We met up
with Liz and Phil for lunch at Imperial Pizza – again! I thought I had chosen a pasta dish, but it
was risotto but it absolutely gorgeous – I will definitely have it again. Liz and Phil have been here for six months
and have decided to stay indefinitely!
They were waiting for a call from Blue Sea Villas as to whether or not
they could have a lovely villa they have seen.
The call didn’t come but I got a message later on to say that they can
have the villa from April 1st 😊

More
visitors were arriving today, so it was another mad housework session. Richard does a good job with the sweeping and
then gets the mop out too!
Our
visitors are Ingrid and Bob (from now on known as I & B!) our next doors
neighbours at home and good friends.
They flew out last Saturday to Alicante and have been staying in a very
luxurious hotel since. Claravista 1 is
no luxurious hotel!
My
alstroemeria is amazing. I really didn’t
think it was going to do anything but once it started shooting I put it by a
window which gets all the afternoon sun.
I am so pleased with it. We have
another two weeks here so, hopefully, it will see us out!
I & B
arrived mid afternoon and we sat around the pool chatting and trying to decide
what to do! We were going shopping but
that never happened! In the end we
decided to do nothing and go out for dinner.
We
settled on the Palacio Imperial Marina (Chinese) which was OK but then Chinese
food is Chinese food wherever you are.
Having said that I have been to China on four occasions and Chinese food
there is nothing like we are used to!!
