    I know that feeling fresh out of the hairdresser when your hair feels like a million dollars and you want to swish it around like a supermodel. Looks lovely Christina 😊

    So glad to see that so many British people that have made Portugal their home, taking these old houses and renovating them , and at the same time keeping the old charm, When I return to Portugal this summer/fall I will be able to speak to many people as English is taking over the Country, I speak Portuguese although I am much better in English. By the way I like Cristina's new hair due and color.

    Hi James and Christina, your replant of space under Loquat tree? is looking good. A tip.....when planting, throw a bucket of water into hole, then potting soil mix with compost, then plant whatever. Make a moat around so water will collect there to plant stem and not run away. Also dig it lower at the back, so water will slowly seep forward and benefit new plant. Rocks and nice stones adjacent to plant will provide shade and keep soil moist. That's a very hot spot and lugging buckets of water a mission. So mulching in any way cuts out hard work and pressure on your back. 🤔💐☕🍰🌧️🌈🌤️

    Hello you two, I see lots of work this week. I love seeing the bike race going through your village, so special. Big progress on the house renovation, it will get exciting soon. Glad you have tidied up that area inside the gate, it looks really good. I think you could put a couple more small plants in that garden. Wow that poly tunnel gets hot 46degrees. Your garden is looking nice, hope you planted that pineapple head. Was that a Bouganvillia is your opening shot,? lovely whatever it is. Good colour choice for your hair!! Till next week..........

    Thank the Lord you are not doing the heavy stuff at the reno house, I think it would knacker you. Our house is in Catalonia 5 km inland from Sitges. We have had a drought for three years, the worst in recorded history as they say, and water levels throughout the province are 16% of normal. Our water deposits which used to fill up in winter are now empty. To keep plants alive we laid horticultural membranes and gravel in our flower beds. It works, looks good, and is maintenance-free apart from vacuuming up leaves from fruit trees a couple of times a year. The garden blower-vac does suck up some gravel but spits it out, retaining the leaves, when you switch off. I agree with you about not over-planting that bed, the plants you put in from pots will leap ahead and soon fill it out. Perhaps you may have room for a couple of the Yuccas in there. Yuccas are great plants, they root easily from cuttings, look architectural, don't shed lots of leaves, and need little maintenance.

    Christina you may want to reconsider having rocks around the base of your trees and plants because they hold heat which is not good for the roots of your tree and plants. It would be better to replace with mulch or bark.
