The birds woke me (the ones I’m trying to photograph) a flock of them was swooping around the camper van; but even though I rushed out I still didn’t manage to get any photos, I could see them really clearly but my camera didn’t react quickly enough for them to still be in shot as the photos were taken – result lots of photos of sky!
Brett finished his footings for the little sitting room today; we’re extending the building by a few feet. The next job is clearing out the studio and gym and digging out the studio floor in preparation for concreting. We bought a joint cement mixer the other week, with Mark (there’s no point in us both buying a new one, we’re not likely to need it at the same time); he’s using it at the moment and we’ll have it in a week or two when we’re ready to do all our floors.
We had a walk over to Gary’s to check on Betty; she seems fine, she looks funny wearing her ‘lampshade’. Gary doesn’t like her having to wear it; I hope he keeps it on her long enough for her wound to heal.
The rain and clouds have been replaced with blue skies and sunshine; so it was back to watering today – the French beans are looking quite bushy; hopefully they’ll start flowering soon.
Another lovely sunset tonight.
Sunset and mountains
Tomorrow we’re going into Castelo Branco to pick up our well water analysis results; we’ve got an appointment with our solicitor, to pick up the deeds for the quinta and in the evening we’re going to the campsite, to have a barbeque with Mark and Glen.
