#1571 Wednesday 7 June

Today :  Repaint the bathroom #1 ...... get another quote for termite barrier treatment ....... maybe get a haircut ..... a slooowww day.  Tomorrow I fly home.

11am .... So far we have had 4 visitors .... 2 about termite treatment .... 1 about the generator ..... i about the tree lopping.
The generator people are rogues.  They charge $60 for a visit with service and oil change  ..... but to have a service contract that gives 2 visits, they charge $250  ..... double the price!  Their price for a single visit is high so we will look for a local person to do the work.

The electricity consumption rate .... so far the record is showing that the present rate of consumption is average to below average .... so perhaps there is nothing to worry about.  The test record will continue for 2 weeks so we have a good record.

Generator ......... the problem was the part that detects the external power supply had failed.  A new one was fitted and all is OK.

I'm at the real Mama Purus for tea.  ..... she is looking very old and not well ..... I don't think she is that old but age doesn't seem to treat people well in Indonesia.  Arista's father is younger than me and he is in a home already.  Arista is funny .... she is like a mother hen .... making sure that I don't step the wrong way.

Today has seen the generator begin a new phase ..... to no longer use the manufacturer's staff for repairs and servicing. Kohler no longer have staff in Bali and expect the customer to pay the technician's travel from Jakarta!  We will now find local people to do the servicing.
