    He forgot his face cream though 🤦‍♀️ Costa Sal is in Puerto del Carmen where we’re staying. Weather is indeed gorgeous.

    Forgot to say Costa Sal is the Matagorda end near the airport. We are nearer the harbour end.

    I could ask her to look out for you! If you see a late-twenties fair-haired lady with a couple of similar age and a couple in late fifties, and she waves, feel free to wave back! :D She says the beach is lovely too. :)

    If she sees a small blonde woman trotting behind a large bloke on a mobility scooter (shouting at him to watch where he’s going) that may well be me 😆 We are staying at Bahia Kontiki on the road known locally as cardiac hill. It’s steep but not as steep as the hills where we live.

    I’m sorry about the fall, but thank goodness he bounces so well! 
    It’s so hard that we can’t explain to pets what is happening 😢
    Your plans for the day sound wonderful. Won’t it be funny if you bump into cherry’s dd 😁

    Oh dear, but at least there always seem to be helpful people around. I think you're brave even going on hols with all the logistics etc. Frustrating that he doesn't keep himself as safe as he might.

    Hope you're feeling the benefit of being in one of your favourite places with the sun shining and some warmth on your skin at long last. What's another man bag compared to that eh? Wishing you many relaxing hours with drinks and books and not too much repeat shopping
