On the road again 7th Oct 2007
2.30 October 6th our time up again had good nights sleep tea cheese and ham sarnies for brekie.On the road France more hilly lots of tree's and more farming, the weather has got cooler the nearer we get to Germany still lovely during the day.Scenic views of hills and valleys,small villages,churches very pretty.
There's a joke in that picture me thinks!!!!
Crossing the German boarder no stopping haven't shown passports once yet.More tree's they must be the leaders in the tree stakes,never seen so many in one area.Have stoped for lunch in one of the many picnic area's (with Loo's)may I add all along the route clean and tidy although the men here seem to pee on a tree or there cars,ah well can't have everything.Germans drive like looni's very pushy.
Visitors 28/10/2009
Today the company we bought our house from rang to ask if they could bring some potential clients to see us,no prob's Tania from Bulgarian Properties has always been really brilliant helped us through the red tape etc a must if you don't speak the lingo.So no concreting its all hands on deck to make sure the house looks tidy.Nice people I hope they buy mind Bulgaria isn't for everyone and there are quite a few differences to England so we tried to give them a little info for and against hope it helped.I refuse to tell anyone its all roses cos nothing ever is.Good day enjoyed it.

Gourds 27/10/09
Today I have been painting not pictures gourds which are a member of the pumpkin family.I get David whom I call my technical adviser to drill a hole in front of them, and then we empty the seeds out and prepare them for painting,when finished they make great bird houses or just unusual presents.We also like playing guitar,and taking photo's sometimes its hard to fit things into a day especially when the house is still to finish.Anyway its 7.30 so I'm off to strum guitar.

Winter time begins.
Well the clock have gone back so everyone here is getting ready for winter.This morning I walked through the forest with my dogs Jaz and Winston and the woodcutters were going hell for leather at the tree's chopping for the fires, most of the villages burn wood.
Damita's our neighbour gave me some wine yum i gave him some home made fruit cake,my cake is quite a joke in England for 34 years I've attempted to make cakes sponge,fruit,any with no success everyone used to take the micki.Daft having to travel 2000+miles to create a perfect cake!!!
