Hogan Stand sponsors and Halloween in Marbella

Welcome to another fun episode of Marbella with Him & Her, the weekly podcast from Marbella. He is PJ Lopez, and she is Hannah Murray, and together they are an expat married couple that bring you some husband and wife banter. This week they begin with the BIG REVEAL! They have a sponsor for the podcast, the amazing Hogan Stand pub in San Pedro (@thehoganstand) where you can go and enjoy yummy food, live music, a weekly quiz (hosted by Hannah) and live sport. They also want to thank Meadhbh for recording the advert.

Last Sunday Hannah headed up to Fuengirola to see a friend that was performing in the Salon Varietes production of Guys and Dolls. Simon was outstanding during his solo performance and really took everyone's breath away.

The week started with Hannah's usual Pilates session at Bootcamp Pilates where she did a lot of inner thigh work, and quite frankly has not stopped moaning since. Monday evening it was the cast party for the recent production of Inspector Drake and the Perfekt Crime which was at La Grappa, an Italian restaurant in Benavista.

Hannah talks about the amazing Halloween decorations at the local gym, which included a 'dead' body hanging from the ceiling. Wednesday evening, they headed out to a restaurant they had not been to before called Fons. It was to celebrate Sheila's birthday with a lovely meal. Listen and find out how they got on.

Thursday was a special quiz night as it was the annual Halloween quiz where many of the participants dress up (to varying degrees). Hannah and PJ both went in Halloween outfits, and they explain more about them in the podcast.

Some notable interviews Hannah did on TRE this week were with one of last year's celebrity race across the world (@raceacrosstheworld) contestants Mary Ellen Moriarty (@maryellenmoriarty_) where they talked about some of the personal challenges she faced and overcame. She also chatted to Prajakta Koli (@mostlysane) who has 8.5 million followers on Instagram and is an Indian actress, author and influencer about her book Too Good To Be True.

Hannah went to Estepona on Friday, and whilst there popped into the Pie Bar (@pie_bar_estepona) and bought two amazing pies, both different types of chicken curry. She also bought some incredible tasting Cumberland sausages, all of which were made on the premises.

The day of recording this week's podcast they had both been out with friends Jamie and Bev on their regular magical mystery tour, where they arrange a day out and lunch at a secret location. This time they headed off to East of Malaga to La Cala del Moral to Cueva del Tesoro (@cuevadeltersoro) which were some privately owned caves. They then headed across the road to a stunning bar and restaurant for drinks which had the most incredible views on what was said to be the largest rooftop terrace in Malaga (@restaurantelacaliza) but were the view 360 or 180 degrees? Listen and find out!

After that they went back along the coast for lunch to a place in El Palo just outside of Malaga City to a wonderful place called El Balneario - Baños del Carmen (@elbalneariomalaga) for lunch. It was somewhere Bev had discovered when she was an extra on Jilly Cooper's Rivals.

This week's Sur in English articles include to awful story of theft from an elderly man by an unscrupulous bar owner who had stolen money from a customer's card. They also discuss customer service in Spain and a new law introducing a time limit on responses, the auction of Elliott Wright's business in La Cala, Olivia's, and tourist numbers from this year on the Costa del Sol.
