We have a new team member here at Les Oliviers - Dave - Our new pool robot. What a difference he makes to my morning. Instead of having to spend an hour manually cleaning the pool we just pop him in and off he goes to work. We should have bought him a lot sooner. No doubt Bryan will find me more things to do with my new found time !
Sunday was a day of rest, the first one for a long time when we didn't do any DiY.
We went for a stroll around the market at St Chinian to pick up some lettuce plants for the garden and bumped into a friend who said we should go for a walk around his vineyard and help ourselves to the cherries from his tree there. So after lunch armed with ladders and a receptacle we went on a cherry picking session. They always taste nicer when they are free.
The vegetable garden is all planted and we are already eating courgettes, lettuce and spring onions from it. The tomatoes are not ready yet, hopefully by next week they will be ripe. The strawberries were very tasty but they have all gone now. Nothing beats going out into the garden to pick fresh fruit and vegetables that you have grown yourselves.
The plan for the next few weeks is to have a working upstairs bathroom for when family arrive in August. We have a lot of landscaping to do in the garden but it is too hot to be working outside at the moment. In between digging, weeding, building, gardening and all the other daily work Bryan has been busy creating a video for promoting Les Oliviers and I may be biased but I think he has done a magnificent job.
