p.s. how's things with you and yours...


Ginny, that's not too bad, geeze my younger daughter has been soooooooooooo bad this weekend :(

I went to the GP last week, after years of denial, think am going to have to involve health care. We are lucky to have a good GP who gave us some great advice , especially about school, isn't it nice when they just talk to you like your half human :D

Let us know how you go on.

Hi Joe

Happy Birthday for Thursday. Yeah the whole process seems to eat away at your life at the moment. Hopefully the TRA will be the worst bit for collecting info - seems to be going on and on. Always seem to find something else to add or change.

We're off to Florida. Was hoping to get everything sent by Courier next Wednesday so I can totally relax and not think about all that damn paperwork!!!!

Hope you get everything sorted out on Thursday. Keep me posted.

Hi
Thanks. Didnt manage to get sorted Thursday. We've got to change yet another reference. Just when you think you've cracked it the agent wants something else changing. Feel awful about keep getting back to people about the changes. I'd booked the solicitors for this Wednesday but going to have to change that now. Little mans got chicken pox now so he cant go to nursery, going to have to have few days off work.

Have a good time in Florida. Marks mums just bought a place out there and they flew out last Tuesday for 2 months. Its alright for some!!!

Karen, we got quotes from Allied PAcific and Dorree Bonner so far and they have both quoted around the £3700 mark for sole use of a 20ft container from Falkirk to Melbourne or Adeldaide.

I suspect Ginny's feeling a bit delicate today :D

I haven't packed yet as we're not shipping our belongings until 12 June. I've had a major de-clutter though as we're only taking our newer stuff and done most of the things on my 'to do' list.

Yes I'm getting very excited!!!! :D

I'm feeling a bit fragile today!! It was our leaving party last night! :scared: Really need to get my arse into gear and get packed but can't seem to get further than the computer....

I'm going to do it one room at a time tomorrow as suggested earlier. That should give me exactly 1 day before the shippers come!!! :scared: :eek:

Never mind always did like a challenge!

Cheers
