Not much work done


My poor husband has had to revert to doing the gardening as our dysfunctional family who should be doing it are not putting in the work required.


They get free accommodation, free water and power plus they are using furniture we have in excess to our needs but they do not want to put even an hour a day into the garden! Our agreement was that they run the garden and get our facilities free plus as many vegetables etc that they need.


If they have work - landscaping etc - they are up and out by 7 in the morning - if they have nothing to do except help us out they don't get up before 10 - it is very frustrating as weeds are now sprouting up everywhere and what was starting to look like a well run garden is reverting to a wilderness!


I hope we can get some work done as I have spent a lot of time and money on obtaining plants which now sit in sleeves waiting for planting.


Oh the joys of living in Africa!
