Even a hobbit house can get civilized!

We've bought the hobbit house in hmm 2003.
So far, the roof has been renovated, 4 new windows have been made in the thick walls.
And on our side, 4 years working hard on it, renovating the walls mainly, building stairs, and creating a floor.

We have to make just everything in it, the whole electricity, the floors, plumbery, etc, etc.

But our main concern was the following: no system to get rid of waste waters!

HulloooOOooo!?
I live in Paris and never got upset when I used the loos, the wahing machine or the bathroom!

Suddenly, the most basic comfort for us, spoiled rich people, turned to be a big big problem. (imagine a house where you can't install toilets or anything dealing with water).

We were to sign for 10 000 euros to create a system to deal with that. Very complicate because you just can't get rid of waters like that nowadays. And there are many specifications that make installations complicate, sometimes impossible.

But, today, just before we signed for this over expensive installation, we got a call from the authorities there in Bretagne, telling us that finally the mains drainage will be made before the end of the year!

We're going to be connected to the mains!!! (tout-à-l'égoût)
When you already enjoy it, you don't know your luck, but when you do not... you can't imagine what it means!

(dancing around!)

I can't wait for my first shower in our hobbit house!
Well, ok, we have to build the bathroom now! ... but that's a detail ;-)
