My families adventure on the road to oz via Germany

good news and bad news.

The good news, is the decorator i had was brillent, took time to help me move the furniture around and took great pride in his work. the only area left to paint is a few areas in our room, we need to move heavy  stuff first.

Just need to stage the house  ready for hopefully all the viewers we will get.

The bad news is V's elderly aunt (his favorite) has been diganosed with cancer yesterday. WE are all stunned and shocked as she has always been the type of lady to keep busy and has never really been poorly. We had planned to visit her on boxing day, but she had flu and was not up to visitors. Im just hoping we get chance to see her before its too late.

Ina as the family call her has always encoured us to go for the move to oz, as she had the chance when she was young as a £10 pom with her husband . Unfortunatly a family crisis prevented her doing it and she has always regretted it. I hope some how she manages to survive till the summer as her oldest grandson is getting married and i know she is so looking forward to this family event.

Nothing more i can say really, life has a funny way putting us on a roller coaster of emotions just when we least expect it
