Routine? and boredom

We are afraid that we will soon be a bore to you because the emotions connected with creating a new place to function in a different reality have ended.

This stage is over.

Now we’re practicing routine activities from 8:30 am until ... the last guest. Should they appear.

So after that we put our horses in (avoiding the red "carpet"), we do the same with the flags and outdoor furniture.

And that is the end of our working day.

In the morning we do the other way round: we drive the motorcycles to the parking stands in the driveway of the neighbour's, who is not there yet, then put the flags and furniture in their places outside.

The rug (in Hollywood it is always a carpet) requires special care because the ubiquitous sand (you cannot possible call it dust) settles everywhere.

The dry season has begun, so everything is even more dusty.

Today, in search of herbs for dishes, especially mint for drinks, Lim drove us to a plant wholesaler where we bought yellow marigolds to add  colours to our garden.

We needed soil for the plants and fertilizer as well. It turned out to be a fertilizer of ... bat droppings. I am not big on fertilizers, but this one smells urine badly!

We'll see if the plants survive it!!??

Lim found rooted mint and lemon grass on the market. The latter got planted among flowers in the garden, and mint in a basin on our balcony.

Today is another very hot day.

The rain may come again according to the forecast.

No customers in sight….

We can relax.
