Default it's real now !!

HI Guys

House sold on Friday , money in the bank , stuff shipped two weeks ago , flying out on the 25th August from Manchester

seams like 2 minuets ago when we first started this joinery in April 2004, have accommodation sorted but no job ( as of yet) going on a skilled workers visa...............

Hey to all those just starting/ waiting to sell their house etc , hang in there it will happen , any thing good takes time , and althougth i am bricking it i am sure we have made the right choice....

the right choice when we dropped £30K on the house so we could go , now that hurt, but it was that or don't go!!!

keep the faith , and you'll get there in the end...

Leaving party today , so going to get very very very drunk!

Gary

I hope you had a great leaving bash - the count down is really on!

We only made the big move in May 08 (from Bristol to Calgary) so our leaving do and hopping on that plane is fresh in our minds.

Good luck
