Well hello all !
Eventful few days as we stayed on in Athens for 5 nights and then drove 7 1/2 hours to northern Greece for a night and then straight into Bulgaria. Funny moment at customs when they looked at our (dead) chilli plant, which we bought to brighten up the tent - and asked us if we 'smoked' it !!
We are now at our new house sit, for Christmas and new year at a small village in the south of Bulgaria. We have been - once again - incredibly lucky ! We have a beautiful remote farmhouse on the side of a valley - all stone walls, slate floors and wood burners. We have 7 dogs, 2 horses, 5 cats and 6 chickens to look after - the owners run a dog charity rehoming the many strays in the country. People here see dogs as the lowest animal and either treat them terribly or dump them at the roadside. Yesterday on a drive to town Candy and I found 5 puppies only 6 weeks old and had to pick them up and take them to the shelter. I will post up the website - if anyone would like to make a donation it would be so well received.
James has been busy fixing things around the place and sorting out the wifi etc whilst, most importantly, making sure the football channel worked ! And I have cooked roast chicken oh it was heaven ! There is lots more to say so I will blog again very soon x x
