Hello to all.

Hope everyone is starting to get into the festive spirit!! Weather here has turned again - very, very cold first thing and in the shade, but really nice and warm around midday and in the sun, bit like being back in the UK when you go out you don't know what to wear! Also the snow is growing everyday now on the mountains - looks fantastic!

People have been asking for more photo's so here they are, these are more views from around the town and of the mountains - hope you all enjoy.

Also the decorating is going well, now have fiber glass to add to splinters in my hands, plus we had to evacuate the house yesterday as the floor varnish was so strong we were both starting to see double!! Good reason to go for a nice long walk!! But the first room is slowly coming together, the new lugs and switches are in - after much wire pulling and cursing - I'm starting to sound like the Gordon Ramsey of the DIY world!! Not pleasant to anyone within ear shot. But it is certainly getting there. Once the first room is

completed the others should be a lot faster and easier as I should know what to expect.

Were also hoping to go to a few Christmas markets at the end of the week so will hopefully have a few pictures for you then as well.

Be good and keep in touch all.

Love Ben & Helen
