This is my blog about emigrating to Bulgaria. It starts with the idea and will take you through all the steps I am taking to create my new life in this wonderful idyllic country. Thank you for reading.

We've finally reached the end of the day and what a busy day it has been. Let's get the update done as I've lots more to do after this as well.
The sun sets, from the roof terrace
It returns this morning, from the balcony
Burning brightly now
First of all some sky pictures, which I've not taken many of recently. Last night just after publishing the blog I caught a glimpse of the sun setting out the back window and ran at top speed to the roof terrace to get a picture and was only just in time. This morning when I woke the sun was just cresting the hills through the slight mist and haze but later on that had all burned off and it was glorious.
The men get started on the rest of the digging
Getting to the end of the trench finally
Starting to put the lengths in place
Bekir hammering a stake in
The storm cell looming
More stakes for security
A very straight back guide
Getting the wall to the right height
The men were in and back to the digging first thing, hoping to get all of that hard graft done before it got up to the forecast 30 degrees. It was very tough going and I'm quite frustrated that the digger didn't get this all done last year however it is what it is and we just have to roll with it now. With the trench dug to the stone all the way along they began the next task which is difficult as well; building the shuttering down the first side and getting it to be straight and upright and secure. While they were working away I could hear lots of rumbling and there was a huge storm coming our way. I got the washing in and there were a few spots of rain but it was actually only just now as Angela and Rosie were watering the garden that it did anything more at all. The rest of the day I was so busy and the men were working away building the back shuttering. Because of the extra digging task they will not be getting the mixer in tomorrow which is a shame but it'll only probably push it back to Monday or Tuesday next week.
Wild flower and Xena
I'll leave you with a picture of a flower on the back bank, these are returning now we're mowing again, and Xena stalking off to investigate a smell.
So there it is; one more day done. I will not be updating tomorrow however I will be back on Monday. Thanks for reading!
