Springtime in Spaiiin!!

The rain is still falling and I am loving it probably as much as the vegetables and the flowers - everything is growing amazingly!

Now on our third set of builders, we are chugging along with the work. The house is being rendered on the outside which is starting to make it look like...a house!!! It is massive, now that the new extension is built, will try to throw up some updated pictures.

Leaving for Zanzibar in a couple of days - that one still feels completely unreal!! We are celebrating Pauls birthday in style, on the Spice Island and I think it might be an amazing experience. And the builders will stay here and finish off the rendering and some other work, so when we come home lots of things will have been done (fingers xxxxx!!!). It feels almost wrong to leave at this time, what with the garden and all but we have gotten a house/catsitter, Jack, who will hopefully take care of things. We also discovered we have another houseguest...Look carefully at piccie above.
