Should be moved in 3 weeks but you'd be welcome anytime - bit further from the airport this time though .

Daughter and grandson arrive 3 weeks and 2 days so gonna have to get busy (and staying for 3 weeks )

Plan 2 (mortgage approved, signed, etc this time) :

Supervisor now muttering about "you've only just come back, you can't book more leave"

Tough, form filled in, better empty the suitcase to fit the wine bottles in
