Re: Over 40's Moving Back and Catching Up
I'm feeling a bit panicked today.
The shippers cancelled the delivery of our stuff yesterday as they loaded the wrong stuff and can't find ours :eek: They said this morning they are still searching the warehouse. Dh thinks they have delivered it all to the wrong address somewhere where it's gone into storage for someone who hasn't arrived yet or is waiting to unpack when they move into a house or something. I'm most concerned about all my kids baby books and things like that, that can't be replaced and have no value to anyone but us. :( |

I don't do it often these days but I love a bit of gravy-soaked bread. |
