Still quiet on the western Front

Well a little more shopping and swimming and relaxing and the occasional Zizz in the afternoon slowly fills up the week.
Although this part of USA is not the most attractive it has the warmth, and in Rotunda West where we are staying its so quiet that at night you can hear a pin drop, as they say, and that is what we like about this place its quiet, near the shops and the good temperature . 

We do understand that if you want to book anywhere on this estate in the spring you need to do it a year in advance as if not all the good places have gone and so this morning we started working on what is available for Feb/Mar 2020 and  spent about 90 minutes touring the area and looking at the five houses offered which are available for next year, well five out of another 30 which are already booked up.

Anyway we have chosen another part of Rotonda West and we think this house will be even quieter than the current one, we shall see next year . So that's the effort for today apart from communication with a neighbour who is controlling our side gate key to allow some Chimney builders to repair the top of the chimney which had started to leak and caused damage to the master bedroom 

We also rechecked flight pricing for a possible return to the UK to attend the  funeral of our close friend Roger but its quite expensive and the long travel times that present a challenge and so we will watch on the web,
This evening another swim in the pool after Noel watched the Man U and Paris SG game on an app on Amazon called Fubo TV where you can get a seven day free trial. Not a bad game but Man U were outclassed and lost by two goals. After there recent performances this was a let down as I think they were overawed by this team.
Oh now for dinner.
