Almost there now!!!

Almost there now!!!
Had our last shipping quote done this morning by Allied Pickfords - We bartered a bit and got our 20ft container for £3k plus insurance @ 3% (includes electrical derangement)... Cheaper than Masons by £200 and Crown by about £300... Mother in Law has been rehomed and we truly want to go NOW!!! Only thing we have to wait for now is the house to complete - exchanging contracts this week and then completing next week...
We fly out of Manchester (Singapore Airlines - Business Class) on Sunday 22nd August and I really cannot wait !!!!
Good luck to everyone waiting for their visa's, be patient and it will happen...
Cheers for now

I thought it was when all your appliances sense that you're going to leave behind and start failing one at a time in the months before you leave....

You've had that as well then?
How do they know we've decided to leave?
It's when the roof starts leaking the week you put the house on the market You have to laugh.

They all do it, it's a little-known, but much witnessed phenomenum. They collude, these appliances. We had a steady stream or failures - video, microwave, washing machine, TV - in the run up to what we thought would be our leaving date. Since our leaving date has been postponed for a year, they've all been remarkably well behaved. Which means we've got to go through it all over again!

That's not insane - it's just another form of insurance

Sounds like we have the same sense of humour. I'll send you a PM sometime and we can discuss our fascination with talking to inanimate objects

Must remember to talk to electrical appliances in a 'When we all go to oz' type of way. Hopefully the'll behave. Thanks for the tip.
