getting there!


After 6 days without internet (technical problems after a big fire in Cotonou) we're back! Fortunately our builders have no need of the internet to get their work done. The wall around our mission property is just about finished now:


(It looks like that mountain might be here to stay, though!)

Our extension is coming on nicely too. Here is our new bedroom with half the roof on and the electrics in progress:



And here it is three days later after the ceiling had been fitted:


The walls were plastered inside yesterday, and the outside's being done today. Then it needs to dry for a week before it can be painted, and then we are away for a week, so things will come to a standstill for a while. Hopefully the painting then fitting of our built-in wardrobes won't take too long after we get back.
