We have reached the end of the working year. After today, the men have a holiday that was originally planned to last at least until April but, as you'll see, we may see them a little before that. Anyway, onwards.

| What a stunning view it was this morning |

| The sliding slope is almost gone |
 |
| A stunning sunrise this morning |
Today was also the last day of Rosie at school and she was very excited indeed. Angela found a lovely top for her to wear for her last day which was awesome. The sunrise we enjoyed this morning was also just stunning. I rushed out to get pictures from the top bank and also saw the remains of our slide. I really hope that we get loads more snow so we can do that again. It was a beautiful sky indeed!

| Bekir with his picture |
The men were in and on time and Bekir got stuck into the tiling while Halil mixed up mortar and then when he was able to get away from that he began working on the window frame. This involved lots of welding and we tripped out our electric so many times. With the frame made it was fitted in to the window space and then they added some finer mesh (to keep flies out) and this looks great. By the end of the day Bekir had very nearly completed the tiling however there was no way it was being completed today. When Rosie got home from school she gave Bekir and Halil the pictures she had drawn for them as a gift for Christmas. We waved goodbye to them at the end of the day and suggested they come back early new year to wrap up this last task.

| Rosie, Sammy and Xena |
I'll leave you with a picture of Rosie with the remains of Sammy - there's not much left now!
So there it is. I'm not sure when I'll be back for another update. Thanks for reading.
