Baby brother at 50 years old but then we never grow up
do we .Our bodies show age but our brains still think we
are game for late nights and dancing. I am !!!!!!!!!
Well Nita and Martin arrive and a quiet week will not be
on the cards especially as when they were here it was
the Spanish Xmas (three Kings Day)
First was a night out at Castaways listening to Derek
Mac and his swing time.
My mate Sue was also in Attendance as was Ann so a real
mad night.
I think Nita is definitely a sixties child as she could
jive as good as me.
This was one of those nights I decided to drink and next
day proved that. Just look at the pics ??????
The Three Kings night was great and as Martin had not
seen it before it makes it more enjoyable showing your
guests our life here and I did cook a turkey next day as
that was our Xmas Day.(6thJanuary)
A couple of days later after we recovered from too much
alcohol and stuffing we all took a drive down to the
south of the island Sotovento Beach which is famous for
wind surfing.
The weather was really warm and in January and just a
couple of days after eating your Christmas Lunch it seem
strange declared Martin.
Who wears shorts and tee-shirt while eating lunch in a
shack on a beautiful beach in the month of January,
normally when you visit relatives at this time of year
you are more concerned that they keep their central
heating turned up high.
Martin &Nita were quite amazed at our lovely weather.
We had a great time with them and so on the last night
we went to Bar Luna our local for dinner and maybe a few
drinks.
This we achieved and then stayed on to watch Michael who
is the resident singer there and was he on great form
singing” Strawberry fields forever” in the Rasta Accent.
At some points he did not know all the words so Nita &I
sang as loud as possible and helped him out. How come we
all remember so many words with so many songs,
incredible what our little brains store!!!!
After Michael a Magician then entertained us.
Yes we get it all here in Fuerteventura and this guy
decided to use Nita and was getting ready to chop off
her arms in a guillotine and needed Andy to hold her
arms in place so she did not run.
He placed 4 carrots either side if her arm and then
pushed the blade down, Scream she did and Andy let go as
how could he be blamed for our SISTER-IN –LAW getting on
the plane with no arms.
Crunching sounds as the carrots dropped to floor but it
worked Nita was able to lift her next pint of beer and
did she look pleased.
Another happy visitor bites the dust and away they fly
back to the cold and wet in the U.K.and my next story is
about my visit to U.K. and a wild party at Alison’s seem
to follow parties or do they follow me, who cares I
really enjoy living.
