Default container

Well hello all, one of the big days has dawned. We have had Pickfords here for a couple of days and today the container is parked outside our house and now being loaded up. It is a very strange feeling. I am feeling a bit of a moment coming on as it now seems so real Watching our life being put into boxes is very strange and even though its what we have been waiting for and working towards it is very emotional. We had our leaving party Saturday night and it was a wonderful night and loads of our friends and family turned up and then you start thinking: Why are we leaving this great bunch of people? I only cried about 4 times so thats pretty good really. We have a week left in our house (with no things in it!!) then a couple of weeks at my mother-in-laws before we fly. Very excited and very nervous. Bevissa

Hi there,I remember having a wee cry when I saw all my stuff being loaded into the container so nothing wrong with that! It does make it all seem so more real though,doesn't it? Good luck with the next few weeks.

but it does make it very real when they and your stuff is gone, gone, gone and you are left with nothing but the carpet .

Hi Maria, we have a lift sorted from airport with some friends and will hire a car later. Just e-mailing holiday lets now for some prices for a couple of weeks and agents for longer term rentals. Not much about in our price range but we have some time yet (yeah, like 3 weeks) We had no room left in container, took loads of stuff though. They have told us the stuff will be there 7th October which is a tad fast Praying they have the wrong month as it will be there before us!!! Can't be any way it will get there that quick. Poor daughter has nothing except her DS left to play with so she is very glad she is back in school. and, how does a child with nothing in her bedroom make such a bloody mess!!! How the heck does that work??? Still, all good fun.........enjoy and keep me informed of your progress Bevissa xxx

Hi Berni, yes we are going to North Shore. Getting very excited and a tad concerned that all the goodbyes are creeping up on us Still, no pain, no gain. When are you hoping to be over there? Bevissa
