The family is a loving, interested, educated family. Rosi, Roberto & two sons. Rosi provides a cooked breakfast, and a very big lunch and in the evening a light supper of coffee/tea/juice and some form of bread, perhaps with fruit. Rosi & Roberto work very hard, they manufacture electric showerheads with an inbuilt water heater on the premises. The manufacturing process includes using molten aluminum poured into moulds. This part of the operation takes place beside the washing machine and involves a barrel, some sand, a gas cylinder, a match, temperatures of 700 degrees, jeans, trainers and a tee shirt. Repeat (suspend all standards etc) The internal electrical parts are assembled in the living room by Rosi, further unseen manufacturing operations take place upstairs in Pilar’s living quarters with Pilar’s help. Pilar is Roberto’s sister. The word sister here may mean step sister because of distinctly different the skin tones. Pilar’s other job is selling jugo (real fruit juice) in the mornings in the local park. The living accommodation has other unique features for example the shower can provide hot water from a locally manufactured showerhead and strangely the power source is external as the wiring comes in through the window. The manner in which it is connected to the showerhead …… suspend all etc.
