    Hello all.

    Didn't come here yesterday as very busy. We have been cleaning the paving around the swimming pool, hoovering the pool and OH has mended the pool cleaner. Took 2 days. OH treated the paving with strong bleach then I went over it with the Karcher. It was all looking awful and neglected and I wanted it looking OK for the viewing of the house today.

    People came at around 11am, just gone, so were here for 2 hours. They were a family from Belgium, grandparents, parents and children. Agent said they liked it very much but they have another viewing this afternoon. But actually I don't feel quite ready yet, French houses usually take a while to sell. They probably won't buy it anyway.

    BL, the fact that they were there for two hours sounds good. I hope a good bit of that time was spent in your garden.

    Buying and selling houses is exhausting @Busy-Lizzie. I remember spending hours picking little weeds out of a gravel seating area before a viewing and then it rained so they didn’t even go outside! I think there is extra pressure to have an immaculate garden when selling in Summer. Good luck with it all.

    I think I’m coming down with a cold. Runny nose, headache, heavy eyes. Might take it easy tomorrow.

    Back from the hospital. If you weren't ill when you went in, you certainly would be, by the time you came out, it was so hot.
    Heart still there, no better, but no worse.
    good news is that renal function is improved.
