End of May

Fiesta girl.....


nice smell in our house now.......that should keep the animals happy for a while



At a friends for supper - wonderful garden




and view.....stunning

Weather....all in the same day

Started out nice


A lovely walk with Emma and Jim......then............

Ice cubes falling and smashing up the garden

and then the rain.....

Attic Rooms and New furniture

New terrace table and chairs, look forward to using them now. The large piece of wood is for the pergola which will be shortly under constuction as it is very hot on this terrace. Let's hope the "creepers" grow quick..!


Blue room - trying to think of a flower name for it - ideas welcome.



Bathroom




Red room - again, a flower name? Poppy perhaps - in French

Yellow room is still being finished, a bedside cabinet is being put together as I type. Then just a tidy up and hang a picture or two and we will be done. J's painted all the doors and the hallway will be done soon. First "guests" are coming on Sunday....so will be testing it all out.

Very Blue and Dogs
