Day 13 – Capena

Things seem to be working themselves out here in Capena. We are due to sign on the dotted line next Tuesday and I’ll be the proud non-owner of Casa Galilei.

It’s been a roller-coaster ride of paying surveyors and the town hall to rectify previous planning permission errors, house clearing, watching people dismantle furniture and refereeing squabbles about who’s taken what.

That sheet’s mine!

Yesterday I took an hour off for a plate of pasta in the sunshine. It’s 20 degrees here.
