The first day in Greece and the garden is an overgrown jungle, the new strimmer has its work cut out here. We unloaded the car and the suspension lifted about six inches!! With stuff away in the house I attacked the parking and getting in and out areas with the strimmer, what a splendid piece of kit.
So what do we have in store for the summer, well on the project front there is the kitchen and pantry ceilings to replace, the old kitchen door to rip out, brick up and a fit a window, the kitchen to refit (more on that later) and the front balcony roof to refelt. Of course most of these tasks will fit in with the various visitors who are coming out this year of which there are many. This is great as it is always good to see folks and also nice that they want to come out to see us. Between June and the end of September we have eight weeks of guests!!
On the outside front we have five days before our first guests arrive and we need to clear the jungle outside and evict the snakes which appear to be living in it. Seen a couple coming and going from the undergrowth and a small one living under a decking board. Another job filling the holes under the decking to keep them out!! The first week flew as we knew it would, socialising, catching up with folks, doing a few personals and getting ready for visitors.
