Default Bye Bye stuff...there's no going back now!
Doree Bonner International movers came to pack up all our stuff the other day!! Scarey!! As the lorry drove down the road and out of sight with all our worldly goods, my husband and I looked at each other and realised that there is no going back now!! Calgary here we come! Yipee!!

Know that feeling well at the moment, ours went down the road last week.

Good luck with your move, when do you actually leave yourselves?

Yes, we remember that as something of a reality check for us too! Best wishes with the move across and hope you settle in quickly on this side of the pond.

Kind regards,

Eamonn & Janet.

We leave on the 13th of August...still too long to wait! Everyone says it'll fly by but time is going so slowly at the moment. Just trying to enjoy the time we have left here and spend every free moment with friends and family.

Hi Ya Paul & Dawn, excellent news, be thinking of you. You'll have no regrets.

Enjoy your goodbyes and last few weeks with family & friends.

unfortunately, after 2 years of stopping, I started smoking again the day they picked our stuff up... never thought it would feel so stressful! 2 months down the line though, enjoying life here and got our stuff a couple of weeks back, it made all the difference, feeling so much more settled now! (not managed to stop smoking again yet though )

The clue is in the name but in case you have never heard of the place: Drumheller, the town of the dinosaurs (1 hour and a half North East of Calgary)!
