Diado had a donky!April 2008.

Diado Dinka,Grandad Dinka has a Magari(donkey)who even though he looks worse for wear has a habit of doing a runner,well should i say walker!We saw Diado limping up the road and decided to investigate.At the garden gate we saw the Magari on the edge of the forest broken chain round his neck so David set off to round him up,no easy feet like any animal here a stranger only makes them up sticks and move again so every time David got near he set off(quite a giggle if your the one watching)anyway Grandad managed to catch up and grab the chain all the while grandma was shouting at him not amused at all.It was quite entertaining for the on looker me!

The Water Pump.April 2008.

Today David and Viloo went to Yambol to take the water pump for a service.If you come to live or buy a House here you really need a well. The summers are long and hot and water is scarce,if you want plants,veg or sometimes just a supply of water when the mains are out or very low.It really is a must!with over 1,000Mt's land that's a lot of water.

Winston's Tale!!!March 2008.

We have gained a new member of the family name of Winston(woosi boy)the softest dog ever(next to  Marley our daughters dog)Driving to Yambol  we passed him,poor wretch but we were tough and didn't stop on our return there he still was, well you guessed it we turned round back to Yambol for some dog food.He demolished 3 tins and some biscuits,after taking an hour trying to Cokes him into the van( no luck)we put Jasper's lead on him and proceeded to drag him into it.Well a more terrified and broken animal I have never seem but not a growl or snap.

Upstairs.April 2008.

The house is coming on fine we have put the ceilings in upstairs quite a feet for 2,especially lifting 6x4 plaster boards so we are quite proud of our selves.
