With a new roof and working electrics in place, Rosie is ready for the next phase of turning the 22roomed derelict Italian villa into a home. It needs to be ready in time for her elderly Irish parents to move in, and her daughter to finally visit after being separated for so long by Covid lockdowns.However, with renovation disasters, endless negotiations with the Shouty Woman at the bank, and the several shades of suffocating mould in every room, it seems like the house will never be a home for Rosie and her family, let alone her octogenarian parents from Ireland.The overenthusiastic tradesmen who put water in the electrics and leave unexpected bills in the letterbox, strengthen the thought that perhaps it would be easier to leave the villa in Italy dream behind and just pack up and move back to Ireland...
