House Build





Hi All,
Just a few words to update for you our progress in Greece.
We arrived in Methoni five weeks ago and so far are enjoying the village life, the people, both local and foreign and the fabulous weather.
Our house build has started and it looks like the architect is living up to our expectations and the house will be completed within the twelve months as promised. Pics of the footings/shuttering, ready for ironwork (anti-seismic) and concrete are attached. The background picture of San standing on mound of earth will be the view from the verandah.
We have started biking, been out twice now, exploring the local places of interest. Its biking in the mornings, swimming in the afternoons.
Can’t get used to waking up to blue skies and sunshine everyday…..temp. 28 -33….and not having to go to work!! Can’t be bad!
We have a new ‘local’ called ‘Destinos’ and we can be found in there most weekends. Pics. attached….only problem, no Guinness, but plenty of Tia Maria for Sandra.
Further news soon,
Love to all,
Petros and Sandra.
