Hola!
Well as you can see from the photos - we finally have furniture!! There was a slight delay on getting it - it turns out the removal van went the long way round - via Portugal, Marbella and Mojacar before delivering our belongings!! The van drivers were great and although it couldn't get all the way up the drive it was close enough and we got everything delivered successfully! The weather was pretty dull that day and we were really lucky that it didn't rain until that evening when we had a torrential downpour - goodness knows what would have happened if it had rained earlier - we would have been sitting on a very soggy sofa I think!
We have started to get sorted out now and I am writing this from our office - which actually looks like an office after a few hours effort of shifting things round and building bookcases and desks (Nigel's department!) It still seems a bit odd that we have got all the same things from England in Spain now - but it works a treat and will look fantastic once done!
Our next door neighbour has been over to bring us a house warming gift of the hugest jar of honey you have ever seen. Now this is not any old honey - it is honey from the honey bees that live on the land at the back of our house....there are quite a few beehives now and the bee-man comes over regularly to tend to them with white suit, smoker and everything. It is quite exciting actually having the honey from the hives that are a few metres away from the house - and it tastes delicious!
We will try to keep the blog updated every couple of weeks on a Thursday or Friday so look out for the next installment on 8th or 9th March....
Love to all,
Sarah and Nigelx
