Epo Epo Epo (hiccup hiccup hiccup)

This is the continuation of the post below called Epo! , make sure you read it first!

The saga continues...
What happens next...

Mr loco, not content with dragging Brian & his guys through the mud, & still not getting resolution with Mr pom, decides on an additional strategy & goes after us too - we think, he thinks maybe we can get Mr pom to sell...

So what does Mr loco do - he goes to the public works department & tells them we are building illegally! The works inspector comes & applies a "obra suspendida" notice (stickers everywhere!) telling us that the "work is suspended", until we prove it's legal!

Thank you loco neighbour!

We now have big holes in our
land & big holes in our progress!

The cannon are primed!

There are many calls made, from Brian to Mr loco, from Brian's beautiful mexican girlfriend to Mr loco, from us to Mr pom (in Canada), from us to Mr pom's girlfriend here in SMA, from Mr pom's girlfriend to Mr loco....the only one benefitting from all of this is Mr Slim - the world's richest man & owner of Mexico's telephone companies...

Brian goes to the public works department & explains the reason for Mr loco's name... They know (or hint at knowing) but say they have to respect his request & we need to restore the surrounding pieces of land to their previous state & then the suspension will come off.

In the meantime, we can continue work, but only at a slow pace so as to look like the works are suspended!

So.. the boys need to dig the holes slowly...
