she can pretend shes Bulgarian...then it wont matter

A little update:

We put some furniture in the gazebo ready for lunch tomorrow, it is looking good now. I started putting some flowers around but will hold off until the roof is done as we are putting some of green netting stuff on the inside which will cover the white bars. You will see I have also put the tiles down for the path will break them up as rubble and start cementing this week maybe.

Yes only taken us nearly 3 years Thank you, so much to do have to do the drive way then the gates and fence, then we are thinking of exending the kitchen out to where the balcony ends, it is about a meter wide. It is dead space so when you are finished with your slog you can always come and help us with ours

You are doing great mate, you have done the biggest job with the root now you can look forward to results.....

Thanks a million VG We had a lovely birthday lunch in there today. We will be doing the roof on 10th May and if all goes to plan hopefully tomorrow will start the concreting the pathway to the gazebo.

Today Dougie maid finishing bars for the ceiling and painted all the inside bars for the ceiling and we managed to get one strip of the green netting on there, mainly it is to cover the OSB wood. I will post a picture when we have a few more strips on. Wed Dougie and our friend Roger will be putting the ashfelt roof tiles on assuming the weather is good. Been told thunder storm is on it's way thought we would have it today as the sky was black then sunshine one and off all day. Had a few minutes of light rain.

Just a thought, have you got electricity down there, because if you haven't may I suggest you put some conduit tubing down before you concrete the path. even if you don't want it now you can always feed a cable through it if and when you need it
That's my contribution for the day

No not yet, was going to just run the cables and hose though but thanks, thats a great idea for conducit tubing. Will work out where to put that next. Thanks a million. xx

Well today was another good day.  Dougie cut and made all the finishing wood for the ceiling.  Yesterday we put up the green netting on the ceiling and today he fittled the finishing wood around the edges, tomorrow will finish the inside roof.  May not be able to do the outside roof on Wed as planned now as more thunder storms forcasted and the ground is too wet, the ladders will sink in.

I also had a busy day between the rain showers I loaded and laid stone on on the small patio area and it is beginning to look like something now. When the weather gets better we will make a step around the patio.  Golly gosh I must say I am surprising myself doing all this gardening work and normally I hate gardening and getting messy but now I don't seem to have a problem  Do you like my little bench?  I will give it a touch of lac

Oh and during the rain period I did some crafting - First time I did this, not bad for a first attempt.
