GOLD STAR!...........





The pergola is finished and I am thrilled with it.............it's not often you get exactly what you ask for but on this occasion its more than I wanted, the next thing is poor Bob has to stain it and get it tiled, hopefully in the near future we will fit some sort of permanent roofing this will give much needed space for when visitors (you know who you are!!!) invade.......this years invasion could not have been planned any better if we had tried and everything is in place so fingers crossed we should and will have a good time.

Bob managed a night at home on his way to Madrid it breaks the three weeks up nicely when he gets home in between but that's in a perfect world and we don't live in a perfect world if we did it would rain in the night and be sunny during the day....it's not, we seem to be having a malfunction and I hope it improves for June.

The first holiday makers since Easter at Richard and Lisa's have meant pool duties this week and when they left yesterday they had written a very nice compliment in the visitors book so it was a gold star for me!

wisteria; clematis; roses .. they'll all help forming a roof of sorts!

you could always start the staining yourself ;-)

Oh how nice is that! I'm sure the visitors will appreciate it.

Mmm, maybe we should have a word to Bob, staining is a girl's job in our house LOL.
