Its been another big week working on the house.A scottish guy called Harvey came to do the Zingeurie.Thats the roof flashings which i could normally do but the techniques are different here so i needed to get him to help.The Electrician came to install the new switchboard in a temporary set up until i break through to the old part of the house.And the plumber came to sort out what we need for the new bathroom downstairs.He's coming back Friday.The septic system is to be started tomorrow,but its expected to rain and the septic man is very elusive and wont need much of an excuse to avoid coming here.He is always a weak link and should have started months ago.
Lola is back at school tomorrow after the easter holidays.Peter and Sandrine Lawson arrive in france next week for a couple of months.I need to go surfing this week,as i havent had much time with all the work going on here.I got my van back on Friday after 3 weeks without it.fuel pumps arent cheap,especially when the first mechanic couldnt quite find the problem,and charged me quite heavily

ROOF IS ON!Not finished but on .This week was huge and i need a coupla days off.I'm knackered!!Too old for this s--t.Murph and Howey put in some hard days and we were expecting rain yesterday and it did,so murph called in some more manpower and by 12.30 the tiles were up and on .Big changes .Strange but lucky that good friday isnt a public holiday here so we could lay the tiles before murph heads back to oz for a coupla weeks

We put up the roof frame last week with murf and howey.They willcome back this week to get the tiles on.I'll paint as much as i can before they come back .Easter next week,cant believe how tme flies!!!
