New Weird

I hope your neighbors who are building things are far away, so their noised do not bother you too much.

I'm afraid not. They are about 3 metres from our house. But their house will be built faster than the others, because they won't build any basement and the walls will be prefabricated ones. Also the builders are very nice people, they always announce when they will be blocking the street. As there is only one way out, it is crucial for us to know when we need to park outside. Not all builders did this and one was even blocking our exit one time. And as they spoke neither German nor English, I needed to show them with gestures that they needed to put their stuff 2 metres further to the right. I had my doubts that they understood, because they just looked at me confused, lol. But 5 minutes later they moved the stuff like I asked them. The block would have lasted for two days.
So I am quite happy with the new ones. I memorised the name and when we build our future shed for the bikes (if we ever do this) I will ask them to do the digging and the concrete.

I am so glad these are good builders. "Mine" seem good people too. When they are working in the backyard I sometimes hear their chat.
I am curious. Do you know what language those other builders spoke?

I guess it could have been Romanian. Did not hear them talking much.
Some firms employ cheap workers from abroad. These workers come, do their job and go home with the money.

Oh, the fact that they were from abroad and temporal does not surprise me. I expected it. But I was curious about what country they came from. Traditionally in Argentina there are many builders from Paraguay.

We are having a few cold days here, but next week is supposed to be warmer. But this means everyone is having a cold or a sore throat or something. I am mostly fine but no promises for tomorrow, which is forecasted to be much colder.
