Tuesday 31st JulyAnd now I'm suddenly thinking...where has this month gone!!! Normal time this morning but something that I ate last night had me up in the night a couple of times and it was a touch of Montezuma's revenge. Still up at six thirty though and left the garden and concentrated on the PC....Now the weather for Kardjali had stated that we were due for several bouts of showers for today and I was counting the Stotinki but all we got was a brief short downpour which lasted from four thirty until four fifty....and they call this rain. My guest's tyres were looking a little the worst for wear after four thousand miles and a lot of them on Bulgarian roads. Into the garage, priced up a couple of front ones and it would take a couple of hours to get them down to the garage. Went over to Momchilgrad this morning to show my guest the delights of the local market and we ended up at the Makaza hotel for lunch. The waitress dragged out the man who spoke English so that we could order and I continued to order in Bulgarian which made his journey something less that useless. Hey I thought his English was good and I had no complaints on my Bulgarian. Decided to go home after that and he set off for the garage while I set off in Beauty for my student and then down to the garage to sort out my flat tyre that couldn't be sorted by my knackered foot pump. Lesson today was the Mayan culture and he had actually done his homework from last week. We spent time talking about the Olympics and the fifteen year old's achievement in the swimming and that impressed my thirteen year old. Went down to pick up my car and yes it had a puncture...all fixed now so home James via the supermarket to fill up on essentials like beer, eggs and bread. There is only one of the puppies left at the spring fountain and it is the one that I said that I would have picked....but please, let someone else have it. Home and supper was pork chops with sweet and sour sauce with potatoes, carrots and peas....the cakes are going to be left untested tonight...I had a sugar overfill last night......and didn't rest comfortably in my little pit. Just about to check up on the Olympics....LN....and on to a new month tomorrow...where does it all go....LN... |
