So, we now know how DFS Settees are made. The hacksaw was to cut off one of the bolts that holds one section to another, on which the thread had stripped. Don't worry, there are plenty more bolts holding it together. Once we had removed the fabric base cover we could see how it all held together and so were able to dismantle it enough to get it through the door and then rebuild it. I do need to get some more webbing for the base - but at least it's in, and it looks fine, and the next time it is moved will be in pieces onto a bonfire! Trust me!
So, we returned back to the Villa to reload the van,this time with the dining table, sideboard etc. That has all gone up to the house this morning and Lucy & I have packed another load of boxes for the next trip later today.
All that will be left for tomorrow are the 2 single beds (that we need for tonight), the small settee (gotta have something to sit on) and the stuff from the bathrooms - oh, and of course - the golf clubs!
Tonight we are off to a Halloween fancy dress party at Pepa's, so a chance to have a few drinks, a good laugh with our friends and a good meal. A good way to spend our last night in Terreros.

Whew, we were wondering what you could possibly do with a hacksaw that didn't include heads rolling !!
Glad to hear all FINALLY is well.
God, you two are so cool, calm & collected.
