Our adventures in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus continue....

Nothing really exciting, just carton after carton to be unpacked. We are however building a mountain of cartons and paper, which the freight company have promised to collect, it's just the fact that they didn't actually say when, that bothers me a little. Everything is beginning to look really shipshape by now. We can't wait to get the garden in some sort of shape just to finish things off.Work around the otos/enlargements/pool%20&%20terrace.htm"> pool terrace seems to be almost finished, today they started site clearing. It will be nice not to have to look at the piles of gravel, cement and builders rubbish, also the ramp which leads from the farmers field to our site will be dug out and then we can see just how much garden we have left.We are told that weeds grow in abundance here and very quickly, so the current planning is to use plastic membrane and gravel chippings to cover most of the remaining garden area. Bri and Lil have tried the grass covering method and came to the conclusion that it was a lot of effort requiring constant summer watering, hence they can be seen working up a sweat with a few loads of gravel.
