The Spanish Builders (again)


After paying lots of Euros for our place to be renovated, we headed out to Spain in order to get the electricity supply working properly. The problem seems to have been with the supply to the new power sockets. It should have been 220v, but was actually 120.

2 electricians arrived and dug a hole in the (new) wall sighed quite a lot, and announced that it was a big problem! They rose to the challenge and rewired the new wiring! Once they departed the builders' son arrived and introduced a plasterer who fixed the hole (s)!

Naturally we are out in Spain to relax, so it's time to get in a little painting and take in the scenery.

It's a long way down, and it's quite hard to paint a wire mesh!

It's a good job that we managed to get some proper relaxation done. some of it involved catching up with emails of course.

Of course, some builders in Spain, work harder than others, but it's quite a short season!
