Looks like the night on the beach happened. You can see the story here on the Ideal site.

Jacqui had 31 points and I had a very poor 26 points in the leukemia charity golf competition at Almerimar today. Jacqui was two points off the winning ladies score and I marked the card of one of the mens winners who didn´t quite get first place.

Francisco Cruz Jabalera won the mens with 38 points. Alejandra Rodriguiz Ruiperez (Marilena and Alfonso´s daughter) won the ladies with 33 points.

Antonio Maleno same in the prizes with a score of 36 points. We started on the 14th and he was 4 points worse than his handicap by the 18th. He then went round the front 9 holes in scratch and the final 4 holes on the back 9 in 1 over his handicap. So well done to him.

We may not have played that well but at least Jacqui was lucky in the sorteo. She won a night for two people including a round of golf at Balneario de Mondariz in Galicia. It looks rather nice on the internet.

Congratulations to James Bailey who scored 43 points in the Friday golf when playing with his dad and John Fl yesterday. Not bad when you are only 11 years old.

Lets hope Jacqui and I do as well when we are playing in the leukemia charity competition at Almerimar tomorrow. It might be a bit of a challenge for us as we tee off at around 8:45am. Particularly if it is misty again tomorrow morning.

It was another hot and misty start this morning. It is burning off a little now.

On Thursday evening I noticed a sign in MacGowan´s advertising a night on the beach. I believe that the idea is that families camp out for the night under the stars. I forgot to note down the date and details but I think it is sometime soon.

A couple of points about this:

1. Once again this is a good example of the junta local and the organisation of neighbours of Almerimar setting up events in the town.

2. Once again this is an example of not being able to go on the internet and find out about these events. If I want to know the details I will have to go down to MacGowan´s and look for the poster. Or see whether I can find a similar poster somewhere in town.

Earlier today Monica emailed us details of the Bonnie & Clyde specials for August 2012:

"Hair:     Deep conditioning treatment with Head massage and Blow-dry  14€    (22€)

Beauty: 5 Sessions Anti celulite massage and 5 Vibrating Platform (shock treatment!!) 150€   (225€)"

Golf is going to be a bit difficult this morning if the mist doesn´t burn off by 10:48.

Wow it is hot and sticky today. I am sweating buckets at the moment and I am doing nothing more than pottering around at home.

The medieval market is being advertised here on the Ideal site.

Friday, Saturday and Sunday (3-5 Aug 2012) starting at 7pm. However as Jacqui mentioned to me last night in the past it hasn´t really got going until at least around 9pm.
