18th April.  As this is Cyprus, not all things on my wish list have been completed since my last post, but we are 'getting there'. The final finish coat has been applied to the walls - in white so it looks quite good - and most of the ceilings have been finished.  Nearly all of the doors and windows, including the large glass patio doors have been fitted and they look spectacular. The patio and terraces have been tiled and work on the pool has commenced.

Lounge, looking though to the kitchen.  Our bedroom door to the left.

Our bedroom.  Arches through to the 'behind the bed' wardrobes and on into our bathroom.

Our bathroom. I know the tiles look a bit 'busy' but there is a lot of white stuff yet to go in.

Kitchen area

Hallway, looking towards the front door.

Painter, painting the lounge ceilings.  Please note the dust sheet - almost unheard of in Cyprus.

Bedroom 3

Bedroom 4

Lovely glass folding doors

Marble pool surround being fitted by the amazing Suliman.

It is now only 12 days (maximum) 'til we move in.  The outstanding jobs before this can happen are;

• Fit front door, pool door and garage door (to make the house secure).
• Fit kitchen and install 'white' goods.
• Fit sanitary ware in our bathroom.
• Connect AC unit and light fittings in our bedroom.
• Paint our bedroom and kitchen/lounge area.
• Build wardrobes and shoe cupboard in our bedroom.
• And probably a million other things which have slipped my mind

So, this coming period should be very interesting.........
