Default We fly Friday!!

Well the containers gone & what a bl**dy good job CROWN did At one point they told us to start thinking about groupage and I started to worry, half an hour later, they literally squeezed the door closed and we breathed a sigh of relief

Dinners with best mates tonight, parents day tomorrow & fly on Friday night

Oh and the house hasn't sold yet but thats another story.

Happy Easter.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAY

I'm so pleased for you all ... it's been a long hard path but you stuck to it, didn't give up the fight when others would have thrown in the towel - and you are within touching distance of your new lives Down Under!

Best of luck to you all and keep in touch xx

Michelle & family xx

Good luck!!

We worried about everything fitting in the container but we had room to spare in the end... we regret leaving some bits now... never mine.... live and learn.

Looking forward to hearing about your adventures!

Will somebody please stop the bl**dy clock!!!!:curse: :curse:

We're running out of time (and energy) to do everything & speak to everyone who we need to & TBH if I cry any more in the next millenium I think I'll drown

For those of you just starting out on this crazy rollercoaster of a ride, clear the decks & sell your house now because believe me this process is life changing and totally time consuming from beginning to end but it's worth it in the end.

And to those of you that have encouraged & bullied along the way,( ) thanks ( I think!!) we'll see you all the other side, cos this time tomorrow we'll be sat on a plane waiting for those engines to power up


See you in NZ
Kev & Sarah
