Nous sommes le lundi neuf octobre

An early start for us as friends we help, wanted to help us in return.
Three of our Afghan chums came this morning, one cleaned out the dependance, another strimmed the edges of the grounds whilst a third weeded the borders.
Malc and I have spent the last month thinking we should start to think of the dreaded bungalow in a village. Till yesterday he said " We are making ourselves miserable even thinking about leaving, let us forget the whole idea."
He is right, we stay to fight off " the bungalow" for another year.
By the way we did have a bungalow in Henley with beautiful grounds and an orchard of your dreams, so it is not really a bungalow we have anything against it is the fact that if we sell now, we are admitting our age and we do think Mas del Sol is the most beautiful place in the world.
The boys on hearing our dilemma were keen to come and help. 
We help them,  they help us, they say being here with us is better than a work out in a gym!!
So everyone is happy and the donkeys heave a sigh of relief that their days with us can continue
Checked Malc agrees with all this but after helping the boys he is now fast asleep on the sofa!
