32 degrees here today and last finishing touches to house complete so far.  News from home not good - severe flooding and River Swale has burst it's banks and flooded road to our farm.  Only the second time in 34yrs!! However, have to let the new regime get on with it and not feel guilty (not easy!!!)

In the meantime have to harvest the rest of the aubergines and peppers!  Looking forward to my eldest son and his better half arriving tomorrow.

Back again

Back in sunny Bulgaria grey days of UK Summer a distant memory!!  All well with the house which has been smartly painted.  Our English friends have rescued some of our vegetables lovingly planted and our Bulgarian neighbour (a lovely lady has frozen our peas, sweetcorn and peppers.  She has also rescued our onions for which we are very grateful!!  Just settling back in nicely with a glass of wine or three - catch you later
