New Bobcat

This morning at 07:30 a new bigger bobcat arrived, but strangely they left the old one stranded in the herrison.

Just after 08:30 the workers arrived and within a few minutes, another broken bobcat ! By the end of the week we should have a fine collection of plant, enough for a bit of digger dancing.

A bit more wheelbarrowing and a phone call, and everything is back on track. The pickup is loaded with underfloor insulation, various coloured gaine (conduit) for water, electricity and telephone to run under the floor along with a bunch of waste piping from yesterday. We spoke to the foreman and showed him the new positions of the toilets etc, which is fairly critical to the positioning of the waste pipes. It didn't feel that mentioning the changes once the floor was laid was a very good idea.

These are our experiences of running a gite business in Brittany, France. A gite is the French equivalent of a country holiday cottage. French culture, language, taxes and bureaucracy. Find out about our gites using the links on the LHS. This is our fourth season (2006) and we are looking forward to the summer. Stories about the road to this point will be added in due course. Renovation nightmares, builders, stress, schooling etc. Stay tuned.
