Thumbs up It's the Final Countdown!!

Well not just yet, we are on the final leg though.

I finished work Friday, loads of cards and prezzies etc, my eldest finished school Friday as well and she was quite emotional, she also got loads of cards & prezzies etc, and to be honest I had to stop reading her cards, as I was beginning feel tears well up
Also my daughter plays for a Girls footy team I help to coach and what a send off we had yesterday, we won a semi final and final, & she scored the winner, brilliant! all the girls in the team also bought me and her a card and prezzie, fantastic, only thing though them medals are quite heavy, so more weight to the cases etc.

The shippers are here on Tuesday & Wednesday so may not get on here again before we go, We fly this Friday night with Emirates from Manchester, I will try and log in, in Singapore just to give you a brief update, if your interested that is

Anyway our 2 boys finish their school on Wednesday (we couldn't bear them around when the shippers where here :scared: )

The only worry we have now is we still haven't exchanged contracts, but our solicitor is confident we will this week, Flippin Bank Holidays when you dont want them

Well that may be it, until we get over there now, so it's goodbye from me and it's goodbye from her

Speak to you all soon

Good luck fella. Best wishes for the trip and start to the new life.

I hope for your sake, Everton don't make it into the Champions League, then you won't be missing anything

Hey thanks for all the best wishes,
But got to say though we are getting really nervous now, in the words of Alex Ferguson:

"It's Squeaky Bum Time" :scared:

Wishing you and your family all the luck in the world...after everything all of us go through to get to this stage, I'm, guessing it's now that is the most nerve racking.....have a great time, you are doing it for all the reasons you believe in. Can't wait to get the "we've arrived and it's great" post.
