Plastering done

We have made it to the end of the week and so let's get this update out the way before relaxation and sleep.

This morning I spent some very fun time with Rosie putting her teddies out on the bench in the play room. Actually I've just remembered they are still there so we'd better get them done before Rosie's bedtime!

So to what Bekir and Halil got done today. They were working together in the chicken house plastering for the morning which made a lot of sense as the morning has the sun strongly shining on the wood store and driveway. After lunch Bekir continued while Halil got stuck into stacking. They both made very good progress and by mid afternoon the plastering was all but done. I went for a chat with Halil as he was cutting and splitting some logs and then sharpening the chainsaw. We also found a load more wasp nests in Julian (who is going to go with Halil relatively soon as he will renovate him and make use of him finally. By the end of the day the woodstore was all but fully filled and Bekir had completed the plastering and also done a load of fixes around the edge of the floor and started to fill in the holes in the floor of the chicken house. Very good progress indeed. Bekir also went onto the roof of the porch again and found three more wasp nests, and another behind one of the air conditioning units. They really are a problem this year!

I'll wrap the update up with Rosie painting with me after the end of my day. She had a lovely day with Angela playing games and then a lovely time with me doing art and crafts. Great fun.

Thanks for reading; we'll be back on Monday.
