Living the dream - Our villa is for sale

December 25

- Now if you recall, I said that today was a normal working day for the local people. Well at 9.00 a.m., two of Darryl's men turned up with a cement cutter and a kango hammer. Now we were extremely pleased that Darryl had responded to our flooding problem, by arranging for a pipe to be laid under the drive, but after 5 hours sleep, too much gin and not enough tonic, a kango hammer did not go down too well, right outside the bedroom window.

But at least Santa had been which was some consolation and the hot coffee started the day off well.

Joan and I had decided that the day belonged to us in our new home, so we ate at leisure and drank in moderation. Tiggy thought that this adventure with a large turkey might be something she might like to repeat in the future.

Lil had said that if we were all fed up towards the end of the evening we should go over for a drink. Now you can't really turn down an invitation like that, so once again we all ended up drinking and playing Taboo until the early hours. At least we don't have to get up early tomorrow.
