Good luck to all of you too, and speedy house sales to those of you waiting on this!

Just curious, but what's the attraction in Westport?

VERY strange feeling after the hectic activity of all of the packing. They are due to arrive sometime after the 23rd of July, we land on July 12th.
We are now left with an old mattress, a laptop, kettle and a house to clean!
Can't quite believe that it is all finally happening at last...

How editing! Not long to go now!!! Good luck!

We didn't bother with the electricals, we are just taking our laptops. Our TV was a little long in the tooth anyway so we decided we would purchase a new one in Canada.
One thing we did discover is that they pack alarmingly fast, if you want to keep back anything move it well away from their packing area. We didn't and there are a couple of things that have ended up being packed that we would not have bothered taking!
Best wishes for the 20th anyway!
Lorraine.

I am going to be at Queen's Unversity, Kingston for a couple of years and we wanted to live in a village that was not too far away...Westport fitted the bill!

Yes they are, took my breath away with how quick. It would be great to have them in for Christmas wrapping of gifts!
You will find it strange to watch it all drive away...
Best wishes with your move,
Lorraine.
