Oh Dear Oh Dear
The last couple of days we have not been very 'tranquil'!
 |
| O still smiling! |
What started off as an ordinary door opening, covered in cement, is now the opening to a cave it seems.
The region where Ugly Betty is, used to be a prehistoric lake and a lot of the houses has been built with wonderful fossil stones called 'Stromatolites'

 |
| 4 Stromatolites filling the wheelbarrow! |
(In Gannat a mere 10 km's away, there's a very interesting museum explaining the region and the beasts that used to live here many many moons ago - http://www.rhinopolis.org/pages/site%20de%20Gannat.htm )
 |
| The stones outside looks like landart |
But getting back to our darling and the fact that we have to change all the doors and windows, this seems to be a rather daunting task as things can move and change in an eye-wink. As illustrated herewith!
 |
| The morning |
 |
| Late Afternoon ! |
In the meantime we found old bricks and O chiseled away on a lintel for the doorpost! And the new doors and windows are arriving on Friday!
 | ||
| Poor Dusty did not think we'll use him as a packhorse! |
 |
| The stone lintel ready to be raised to 2.20 meters |
So now for the suite........
