Progress next door

The digger which was removed last Friday was delivered back today and is digging the swimming pool. The guy building the supporting column seems like a class bricklayer. Despite what they say about Spanish workers these guys are all working hard. It has been noisy and dusty we have got to hose the car down again tonight before we go out but it is all very interesting. Ken and I have agreed whatever we will not let it get us down. Let's face it, we can't change it, so live with it.

Bath day

Sky drying off after her bath. I thought I would let her out to dry in the sun but she immediately went to roll in the soil. Shula is sulking on the bed. Neither of my dogs like water, just as well I suppose as we have a swimming pool in the garden.

Update

The people next door appeared today to check progress. I spoke to them they seem very nice. They said they were as shocked as we were that the builder had removed the hedge as it was not on the plans. They will either replace the hedge or build a big wall but I expect that will not be until the job is completed.

Building work next door

The builders arrived two days ago to start work next door. We had no idea this was going to happen I am not sure how the planning laws are here in Spain but it would appear they don't have to post a prior notice of intent, so no consideration for the neighbours.
