Default the container has come and gone

we are now sitting in an empty house (only 2 matteresses) all our stuff loaded and sent onto its container

how the room echoes now it is very depersonalised

i can reccommend pss the lads we had were brill, they packed up our 3 bed semi (including the motorbike ) in one day and packed it all onto the container the next

great service from them

must excuse me now been to the pub had several drinks over which i shouldnt have but hey were celebrating as there is no going back now

as to the bike question, yes we (this is the royal we) cleaned it first and then disinfected it with approved stuff

the 20ft container was just enought for a 3 bed semi and the bike with a tad of room left

at tilbury docks i hope as i type, hey no spelling mistakes depite the innebriation (pissed to you and me)
