We had a delivery of door frames today, so together with Carlos yesterday saying that he is coming up today to fit them, it should be quite an exciting site visit tonight.
Just to annoy (and I don’t usually) a certain someone who dared to complain that she was ‘not interested in the damn genny, how was her and the lads bedrooms coming on’. We re-positioned the big genny this afternoon a bit further away from the caravan but still up the leeward side of the portacabin. We have built a block wall around it and then we have twisted the exhaust cowl so that it points away from the caravan. It is certainly more quiet and the fumes are less noticeable. Obviously diesel (and particularly farm diesel) is a lot more economic than petrol but the diesel fumes are not good and the diesel liquid is not as pleasant to handle. I’ll report more on the economy as we use it more. There you go Debs, just for the big boys J ))
We met up with a fabulous lady called Jane this morning. She and her husband and children live in a house that they built themselves. Bill is a builder and Jane is an interpreter. They both built their house whilst they both worked. She has kindly taken us under her wing and will help us to become registered into the Spanish Social Security and Health system. We are meeting up again next week.
It’s a nice enough sort of day after a cold and breezy night. The sun is shining just now but there are dark clouds about. It’s about 17 degrees and the barometer is reading 1016mb.

We are with Debs on this (we by the way is Christine and Cathy). Stuff the Genny lets see the door.
I beg your pardon. If you had to rely on a genny for your creature comforts you'd sing another tune all together, I can tell you. We are not unwrapping the door because it's got miles of black plastic sheeting around it to prevent any building damage, so you'll all just have to wait, so there. HANEW.
BTW, no one said what a really nice block wall (almost two hundred blocks)I have built around the caravan. I'm crest fallen that my tallents have gone without mention.
