Thursday

I had to wait in this morning for the lady to come and do the house inspection so I took the opportunity of answering some overdue email and ordering some things online for birthday people in the UK. I did some washing and got it out on the line and generally did a bit of tidying to make sure all was well for the inspection. My Avon lady called round with my order and all of this before 11.00!!

The gardener came and I went out to have a chat to her and she told me her husband will come in when he is back from Melbourne to prune the olive tree and cut down one of the cabbage trees that is starting to block our view from the deck. I think the olive tree is going to look pretty bad as it is out of hand but it has to be done.

The agent came to inspect the house and was a lot more through than the previous one although it could be she just wanted to see the house as she is new. She was very happy with it and said she will send a good report to the owner but then I would not have expected less as we look after the house as if it was our own.

I rang Margaret and we went out for a cup of tea down to the Mount as it was too late to go to the cinema. Margaret has made me a bottle of Baileys Irish cream and it is really very good. Unfortunately, it does not last for more than two weeks so I will 'need' to drink it!!!

Jon came home and got ready to go out to his class and we had a chat about booking a hotel in Japan. You need to be very careful what you book as a lot of the hotels have VERY small rooms or they have sleep capsules and I could not sleep in one of those! I think we are going to have to pay more than we wanted to get a decent place.

I had my dinner while Jon was at his class and then I made him a wrap when he got back.

We watched a bit of TV and then I read my book.

WEATHER
Sunny and warm but still a little windy 20 degrees
