Not much more to go on the pig house and I forgot to take photos of the party!!!

It was Anna-Marias birthday yesterday and we celebrated last night in style. David, Marilyn and children all joined us in the celebrations. We had the traditional Moules Marinieres for starters, followed by salmon and cheesy chips (how English!!) and chocolate birthday cake and ice cream to finish. Yum yum!!!!
Tony decided to take our guests for a moonlit ride in the valley. Sounded a good idea at the time but when they had not returned after about half an hour I braved the elements in search of them!! On reaching the valley I could not hear or see anything. I started to worry until I saw a small flashlight flashing at me!!!!! It was Tony!! They had got stuck and the engine would not start. Walking back I managed to slip over in the mud and get a little bit moist!!! Andrew rescued them with wellington boots!! The Range Rover finally returned this morning!!!
Our team of French men finished their works on the septic tanks yesterday. Now all we have to do is wait for our SPANC inspection and then they will landscape the trashed garden. We have been extremely impressed with the speed that they work and how they handle their diggers. They are amazing guys.
The O'Flynns have left to continue their travels now. Safe journey guys, good luck and see you soon. xxx

Pig house is looking good, am sure the piglets will be happy with their new home when they arrive.

Good luck with the landscaping, I am sure they will do a great job.

What would we do without wellie boots!!!
