From here to infinity




So, the site is being prepared for the pool and the race is on to get it finished (retaining wall and concrete base) before the guy who's building it arrives from England on the 8th October....ummm. We can't control the rain or the builder for that matter so here's hoping.... Squeezing it all into this location will definitely make it an infinity pool a.k.a. kids fall off the edge of a mountain pool.

Ok, I made bread again today as Celia ridiculed my flatness. So, here's a full on padded version. Ner ner ner ner herrrrr...

The bedroom curtains are all being completed today downstairs. It's such a fantastic view from our bedroom that it's a shame to put anything up - even at 6am it still manages to lift me as I stumble out of bed.

Last but not least the gardener is here raking the land and planting grass seed and also planting all the citrus trees. Three years to wait until they bear fruit mind you unless we feed them, Desmond (the gardener said) - feed them, I nodded wisely thinking of the Little Shop of Horrors....never a dull moment in the Caribbean...

Yeah, thought I'd set up a litle stall at next Saturday's market in fact...
