I love the coin images on the T-shirt, they even have a silverish finish.

Cleo and I were trying to find 'Uncle Peds Town' bar again.
Couldn't find it and got lost!
There are three 'Uncle Ped' bars in Benidorm, this one is their newest, so we had to try it.
1,60€ for a pint of Amstel.

We then made our way to our next bar, which has become one of our favourites.
On the way we passed a few bars on the 'British Strip'
We said hello to the 'fab four' at the 'White Star'.

I looked out from my balcony in the hotel and I saw a flash of a 'red colour' and the movement appeared 'birdlike' from a distance.
So I grabbed my camera and zoomed onto it and took the photo
Uploaded the image onto my laptop.
And.........That was a disappointment!
I present to you 'Marcus's Reddish Bird'

We arranged to meet our friends at the 'Rock & Roll House later.
So we decided to eat out for dinner along the way.
We chose the 'China Garden ' Chinese Restaurant.
Used this place last year and found it OK and good value for money.
Once again we weren't disappointed.

Then we arrived at the 'Rock & Roll House', we got there before the doors opened to ensure a good stage view seat.
We were entertained by Status Quo - a great solo act, who we saw last year.
A couple of new acts for us were 'Evie on Stage' and 'Dean Ryan' and of course our favourites, The 'Duggy Boyz'

A really cold day here today, a real wind chill, coldest we've ever experienced in our Spanish trips.
Cleo had to wear her gloves.
So we popped out to do little shopping, she bought a couple of tops.
Had a couple of pints in 'The Royal Arrow' and then we went back to the hotel for Happy Hour,

We returned to the Hotel in time for 'Happy Hour'.
I bought my usual pints and Cleo's Gin & Tonics sat down and saw these on another table.
One guy finished his and left, his friend gave gave up shortly after, leaving quite a lot of beer.

After breakfast we saw some cat's, more than likely strays.
Cleo fed them some scraps from breakfast, it's such a hard life for them.
We found out later there's a local Spanish lady who come outside the hotel daily to feed them, we talked to her, we didn't need a translator to understand her.
We counted 6 cat's with her, she even had names for all of them.
She would call and they came to her.
There's even a memorial stone in her feeding area to a cat she lost.
May she keep caring for them for as long as she can, really made us miss our cat's at home.
