Smashing Time

Being Saturday and no builders around, I took the opportunity to start knocking down the internal walls where our existing bedrooms are. As you can see in the photo, I'm clearing out the walls which are over what will be the staircase for all of the levels of the house. Sue says that, every time we do some of this 'clearing', it lets us visualise a bit better the final result. Having said that, the final result is still a long way off!

Sue completed planting the first of her 2 sacks of bulbs this afternoon. This morning we went to Cahors and it was freezing fog, and all of the trees were coated in frost; lovely but cold. However the afternoon warmed up enough for Sue to be able to make holes in the earth.

She's finished the planting in the bank along the trees by the 'cherry alley' (as it will be). The second sack of bulbs are destined for the Birch copse in the back field, but first I have to make a mound - you know, one of those 5 minute jobs ; 'can you just.....'. Oh well...............................
