Rather depressing decor, along with injunctions not to put anything on the walls. Looks rather like they've been to a car boot sale. But Venera arrives in the morning as requested, bearing a two burner hotplate to replace the single burner we were greeted with last night as well as, in subsequent trips, a stainless steel frying pan to replace a small detefloned disaster, and a microwave. Definite improvement. Off to begin restocking - beyond last night's essentials of bread, wine, whiskey and oranges. Now have free range eggs, tinned beans, onions, garlic, bananas (small and local but astonishingly cheap). Now becoming possible to produce a meal of sorts. Very nice after a month of not doing our own cooking.
