it gets better - one night i discovered a spider in my jarmie bottoms and me and the girls were in fits of stifled laughter but i couldnt scream and through all the fumbling and jigging around the bedroom i squashed him with my bum and still i couldnt scream. i had bits of spider legs and body on my backside. god it was a nightmare

now if id been 20 years younger and still living at home screaming for my dad in the middle of the night cos id seen a moneyspider wouldnt have been a problem and quite the norm but it all "changes" somehow when you move back and everyone is "older". weird

Thanks for that

Think we will be taking a bit more than that, as we will be taking 2 sofas, king bed, single bed, 1 wardrobe, and fridge ( fridge to go in garage ) and other smaller things.

Great post - and love the photos.
Notice you have a guitar on there! Did you buy a hard case for it? We have 2 to ship over.

We also have "almost" sold house before getting visa and moving in with parents :scared:

Oh the lengths we go to!

Good luck to you and yours
