Hope they up their offers.

Thanks Joe. I hope they increase them too! I hate the washing after a holiday - it spoils the relaxed feeling. The weather here wasn't good, so you probably got nicer in Portugal - if that helps.

This is the last of the storage unit - now I have the loft to clear!


Hi Joe - How was Portugal? I love it there. FA forgot to tell you about the madness with the St. Joe's

Oh yes, we have all bought plastic St Joe figures, (your namesake.) and buried them in the garden. He is supposed to attract buyers! When you have sold, you have to dig him up and put him in your house! Let's hope he works for all of us!!!

He has offered to introduce us to his friends who are in the same age range as us but would rather not have the ready made one's. Would much prefer to go to meets and sports clubs etc. then you can decide who you would get on with and won't feel obligated to stay in touch with people that you don't like You can't get on with everyone, can you?

Oh what a glorious morning, absolutely p***ing it down here and has been all morning
P-ing down here too - and windy.

Good idea to avoid those sort of situations. It's awful when you end up having to avoid people.

Hi Nic, morning all,

I completely agree with you about not being arsed, but oh has said we need to be organised, if we get a buyer then it could be all systems go, we need viewers before we can sell:curse: So will look and get info from the removal companies and pet export and then he will think I have done something.

Its p***ing down here as well.

Good luck with the packing Miranda.

Hey Lisa - I wish it was my OH that was organised but he just says, will do it later (favourite saying), then at the last minute will ask what I have done If anything needs organising, garages, gardens, cars, loft, house etc. he will only get on and do it if I do it with him

I have done a spreadsheet with all the companies on that I have applied to so that I can compare like for like. I also have thought of a list of questions to ask them (from other threads on here).

My next job is to look into private healthcare, as somebody told me that if you get it within the year after validation they do not age load you and just price you according to a 30 year old (we validated last July). Has to be good for us and with OH's medical record and my age Don't know where to start on that one though.

Just been over to Stevenage to look for a new bed for the spare room. DD1 is moving out in July and taking the bed with her. More expense

Still p***ing down

I have just gone through a load of past posts as well, looking for removal companies and pet carriers, will be emailing them at some point today, we will have to compare notes.

My next job is to look into private healthcare, as somebody told me that if you get it within the year after validation they do not age load you and just price you according to a 30 year old (we validated last July). Has to be good for us and with OH's medical record and my age Don't know where to start on that one though.

Yes that is correct, I read it in one of the Australian magazines and as OH and I are late 40's and are not eligible for medicare we had decided we would do this. If I can find the magazine I will let you know.




its windy here as well
