Just spoken to Didier.

Electricity is done for this phase.

The doors and windows will be fitted next week. I've told him that the tiles will turn up from Morocco at the end of the week and he says don't worry, they will have at least one room secured with a locking door by that time (but should have the whole lot finished). He will talk to Mr Roumagere and Mr Vende to see if they can lend us a couple of workmen to help unload the tiles when they arrive, I need to send him the exact day so he can arrange.

He has not had time to do anything more on the little house roof. He will "keep it in his mind"….

He has spoken to Mr Magnieu (window man), who is getting him the model of the external doors today, so we can choose the correct internal doors. They are between €400 and €500 each door - so what we were expecting.

The master bathroom pipes have been moved already prior to the electrics going in - good.

He has only had one pool quote back so far out of the three that he requested. It is for €35k, we'll wait and see what the others come in at. He is mailing me this later today with the door model.

Didier is taking his gardener to Bellevue on Friday this week to get a quote for the pine tree and the bamboo. He wants to get a separate quote to do the rest of the land properly.
