Snapshot Holiday Turkey

Photos taken in our garden overlooking Milas. We picked some olive today, and the family will be over the weekend to help with the rest. A time consuming job can tell you.

we remove the standard kitchen light and fit some stylish spots with a chandelier for the lounge.

If you have a property in Turkey, you may well be used to having a puddle of water by the front door after a downpour of rain. This can lead to damage to any woodwork or a wet rug or door mat. It is also common to have plasterwork damage on either side of the door. The problem is that the steel security doors are designed for security, but the bottom of the door is missing any protection from rain when it runs down the door. In the UK we have rain deflectors at the bottom, which effectively keeps the water away from where the door meets the sill. So, I have fashioned a rain excluder that will prevent the rain from running down the door and into the house. I have used an aluminium floor beading on the threshold, with a profile attached to the door. The profile deflects the rain over the beading. Job done.

I am sure many will not like spider photos, but when I saw a spider this big, I thought it worth a photo. This was as big as my hand not counting my fingers. Probably the biggest spider I have seen. Apparently it is not dangerous although it has venom and anyone receiving a bite should always seak medical attention.
