Back to normal (ish)

I think we're just about back to normal, whatever that might be. Bought a proxy TV viewing option yesterday so we can now watch British TV via a laptop. No need for the satellite dish (for the time being!)
There are some workers doing up the next door house and they park opposite our house in a spot we vacated last week preferring to walk 100 meters to a safer spot on the advice of our lovely neighbours. They'd had their car smashed late last year at a cost of €5,000 yet to be reimbursed by their insurance company. We'd had two incidents when skidding cars had narrowly missed ours, so we took the advice seriously and moved. Two hours ago we heard a double thump and looked out to see the workers car had been almost written off by another skidding driver. We believe it's being caused by a water run-off along the road on a corner, supplemented with an algae-type growth that makes the corner very slippery, especially if the tyres a a bit thin!

So, HELP!!! - we moved just in time. Now, B is concerned that we didn't warn the workers from parking where they did.

I see this coming weekend could have good photo taking weather in the early morning, so it's up at 5:30 a.m. and see what I can get.......
