Have not had the chance to update lately - simply too much going on! The second house, now called Le Chene, is going well. Here the terraces are shuttered before the concrete is poured.
The hole forms part of the sceptic tank drainage system. Note the chateau in the top left.
Most of the activity in our house has been concentrated on the interior with our bathroom tiled and ready to receive its sanitory ware ( which is not yet in stock!)
Last weekend we took the weekend out to celebrate our 3rd anniversary of landing in France and were joined by Ian & Sheena and Neil & Karen. We managed to squeeze in a few sites (and glasses of wine too) . Sheena took this of us at Gordes- don't give up your full time job Sheena!
We currently have New Zealanders staying in Les Cypres for 6 weeks, they are a really nice and very hospitable bunch so we had a bbq and christened the terrace - our first do before we even live in the house - not sure the neighbour was too impressed!
The terraces are poured on both Le Chene and our own house - changes are happening!
The weather is still lovely in the day about 22 degrees but cooler at night down to 5 tonight and still no sign of our Heat pump so no heating!
The last few days I have been consumed by paperwork having to produce for our accountant every receipt for every detail on the construction of both house! oh joy! I am actually looking forward to going back to my sander next week!
