Still having Physio!

Forest Fire – Tenerife
Looking at smoke from our terrace this afternoon and following comments on various forums there is a fire in the Ifonche region of the Island. All of the services are there trying to get it under control however with the high winds and the very dry landscape they are having difficulty. Here is a video…
Don’t Run for the Bus!

Drinking Water in Tenerife
This week Cathy and I obtained a piece of new kit for the kitchen, a cool water dispenser from Home Coolers International.
