Metalica & Marbella

Friday 5th October

After breakfast, walked down to see Antonio the metalica man about the banister, who looked apologetic for not turning up Monday….”very busy”….he’s been taking English at the language school lin Fuengirola it transpired. He will come at 5 pm with his colleague from Sevilla.

This allowed us to drive down to Marbella to see J’s solicitor to collect her Spanish will…a pre-requisite for property ownership over here, but no news on the land registry….only seven years since she purchased the house, but hoping it will happen next year.

After coffee in Orange Square and a walk round the old town, had walk along the port and front, and discovered a very reasonable tapas bar at the end of the promenade, and enjoyed a medio racione of baqueronnes ….fried anchovies.

Back home to await Antonio , and he appeared on time with his “Friend” to measure up for the banister.
