Monday 28t May 2007 (Good heavens, on line for ten minutes))




Three days off, just when three days work could make so much difference. A bad weekend for us, what with the wind and all.
Today we went down to Antas to view some items and to see if we can find some principal entrado furniture (knobs and knockers etc for the front door). No joy, keep looking.
Two builders on site all day. Whilst waiting for a delivery of more blocks for the utility room they started on cleaning the windows etc inside the house. They started off using an old piece of denim jacket to clean the windows with and I ended up giving them a roll of kitchen towel. They then hand finished off cementing/concreting the last ten meters of drive way. The blocks arrived so then they spent the rest of the day building up the walls of the utility room. We have been told that they will finish off the bathroom tiles on Wednesday and then that just leaves the illusive Carlos. Quite when we will next see him is a good guessing game. Any one wanting to wager a fiver on a particular day will get four to one odds from me (don’t count Saturday and Sunday, it’s not worth it).
The wind has died off a little this evening and this afternoon we have started to watch some of the French Tennis Tournament, just because we can (no mates to play with here at the moment) and together with Eastbourne and Wimbledon it will help to pass the time until the big move in, what ever month that might be in.
