We are back from a hectic weekend away. Not that we did much, most of the time was spent travelling there and back. We had planned to go into the city centre as we usually do but decided not to this time around and had an easy time in front of the telly with Maria's family.

We are still being left hanging in the air with regard to our new apartment. The present owner is currently continually making himself unavailable. We are unable to sign the contract and until then we don’t know what is going on. We have to be out of our present apartment by the end of February so one way or the other we will be moving it’s a case of where. The invisible man is being forced to leave as he has fallen behind in his payments and it looks like he wants to play games. Is anything ever easy?

For those of you who pay close attention to detail you will have noticed I have joined another web ring. This one collects us expats together in one place.
