We have, however, found a couple of furniture businesses in Avelar that we will be buying from in July when we next return.

Some friends want to stay at the property this year. They will give us feedback and be a good test as to what still needs to be done prior to us letting others use it.
We would like to get the garden and terraces in some sort of shape. At present these areas tend to become overgrown and look a bit scruffy.

The apple tree, seen on the left behind the logs, needs to be pruned. Any offers?
