The man of the moment...introducing Alberto the Plasterer




This wee man from Portugal is doing a marvelous job of transforming our house. He is so madly game hanging off rigs built on shaky planks slung across the last of the metal platform....fueled by coffee and leftover cakes he soldiers on diligently until wine o'clock at 7pm when he sits in the menage after changing back into his 'good' clothes and sips on a porto or a glass of red with a wee aperitif. All done and dusted off he goes home in his old motor inscribed appropriately with 'The Fox'. He is affectionately called 'The Silver Fox' in our house...we all know who Mike is referring to! I will keep you up to date with his progress but he is going great guns and is moving downstairs Monday! Fantastic!
