A lot has happened since my last, rather miserable, post.
First, some men came with a pneumatic drill and started to break up the floor in the adega, where our kitchen and living room will be. Since the house was built into the hillside, there's quite a lot of sheer rock face involved.
But whichever way you look at it, the presence of a JCB and a compressor parked outside your house suggests that something must be getting done.
Then, this Monday, work finally started on the roof. In fact, it's progressing so quickly that they could be done within the week, guttering and all. I'm sending Tim up there tomorrow with the camera.
And now that things are coming along at a more satisfactory pace, I hope to be blogging more. But we're still some way off choosing paint samples...

I always thinking getting the roof done means you've got a PROPER house on the way. Fingers crossed it goes smoothly x
Cheers Sal. I'm going to go an Inspect the Works this afternoon. I've got a hard hat and a clipboard and everything... although no-one at the site takes the slightest bit of notice of the Senhora.
JCB outside the house - definitely means serious business :)
