busy weeks in between visitors (J1)

The Irish have left to go back to rain and darkness, and we are already getting ready for the next batch of visitors. We should probably start charging B&B rates, but we love visitors and are enjoying showing everyone around.

Ok, between these visitors we have (had) 2 weeks to recover. Unfortunately it has hardly been a recovery so far, we had scheduled work as much as possible around the visitors. When the Irish were here I had only one project I had to go into the office for. During the 2 weeks in between we had 2 public consultations planned in villages. The first one was in L., approx 6 hours driving north. As I said, hardly a recovering time, we drove up there on the Sunday after the Irish left.

Public consultation meeting



Yesterday we had another consultation about a different project close to Gabs, the meeting went on from 9 in the morning until past 1 in the afternoon, and I ended up going home with a heat-stroke or something.

We also celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary this weekend. Thanks for emails, cards and sms's from everyone who remembered. We spoiled ourselves with a dinner in a 5* hotel / restaurant in town, and took it easy most of the day.
