Been to see short beardie person today, and it's not about the measurements.
I need a licence to build a wall.

I pointed out that I've replaced a wall that has been there for 30 years and has fallen over. (I literaly pushed it over!)
Doesn't matter, it's a new construction, I need a licence.
Oh well, I'll go and see my English bricky friend, give him a nice "Drink" and get him to put it through as a project.
As usual it's all about giving the town hall some money.....Not as bad as I feared...yet.....
Back to living the dream.

How's it going on the Isle of Widget?
Phew!..really glad that is all, thought for a moment that your bloody neighbour was coming back at you, go on you know you really want to............help the Town Hall.
Yep Island life here is pretty good, had the Architect around today to finalise the drawings before they go i for planning and Building permission, soooooooo much easier, sad but true and it has nothing to do with language either as we both speak Spanish and have worked the Spanish system for many years.
Tree cutting down at the moment,we have about 15 to come out all planted by the previous owner who hadn't thought about future growth and close proximity to house and each other, and then plant some more but with a little bit more thought for the future.
Just changing the car reg's back to U.K. reg at the moment and finished the last one today, luckily I kept my Corvette on U.K. plates as well as Spanish ones, it's the road tax that's the killer.
Couple of weeks then off to the Le Mans Classic for the weekend, haven't been for a few years so really looking forward to it,and all those lovely cars and fuel smells.
Did that other Tug offer ever come back again ?
Beautiful weather here at the moment as well, probably until the round the Island race next weekend,I think I will go down to Ryde next weekend and settle down with a couple of cold ones just to watch Ryde sands as there are some lovely sandbanks out there just under the surface and always catches a few out.
