Counting down? :D

Re: Bump Lionda
 

Don't :p it's scary :eek:

Re: Bump Lionda
 

Cannot resist joining in.

Lionda - it is getting closer and closer - how prepared are you - only joking.

Good luck with all of the packing, yeah I hated it too but remember if you take ages to unpack each item becomes a new item and everything looks different in your new home anyway so it is very exciting.

Ohh yes, it's so close now, this time next week, you will be in the lovely HOT sun that is Spain. Good luck for moving day..:D

Re: Bump Lionda

Re: Bump Lionda

Re: Bump Lionda
 

As soon as I can get my internet sorted when I'm over there I may just do that :D

Re: Bump Lionda
 

That is exactly what I said to my hubby this morning when we were doing a car boot in the cold wind - yes, the weather has turned :( Got rid of more stuff though and made £100 so happy about that :thumbsup:

Re: Bump Lionda
 

Not really prepared at all Rosemary - we keep playing truant from packing because it's sooooo boring. My hubby sits on the floor and says (Lee Evans style) "I can't do it" :rofl:

Re: Bump Lionda
 

i write said but it only came out as aid:(

Re: Bump Lionda
 

Lionda,

Not long now for you - woo-hoo! :D :D :D (er, any second doubts? :p )
In case I don't manage to get on-line again for a few days, I wish you all the luck in the world.

Mrs Teapot xxx PS: apologies to those on here who mentioned in another thread that I was missing (nice to be missed! :D ). I had to change email address/service provider and have been off-line. That and boring painting indoors - loads of gloss-work....Zzzzzzzzzz!

Re: Bump Lionda
 

OK lady lionda get off that PC and get back to those boxes, I know your there and slacking off will not get the job done. What's the house looking like now, do you have at least one empty room to show for all you hard work.
Come on now all your boxes should be staked (full ) in one room all labeled clearly with your new address or at least a number showing that they belong to you.

Hurry up and get the packing finished so we can open up a bottle of vino and have a slurp or two to wish you, hubby and cats a safe and pleasant journey.:wub:

Re: Bump Lionda
 

Hi Lionda :)

Sorry I haven't been in touch recently, but I have been following this thread with much interest.

Oh, how exciting...........just 3 more days to go!!
As you've seen on the weather thread, there's sun, sun and more sun here now :thumbsup: so plenty of warmth to welcome you.
(Don't forget to pack the sunscreen somewhere near the top of your bag!)

It sounds like you've been busy at the car boot sales, so well done for making a bit of cash in the cold! How are your poor little knees now?

You can't have all that much packing left to do, can you? :unsure:
Have the cats got their passports all sorted?
Are they the sort of cats that run a mile when they see the cat basket, or are they pretty docile and laid back?

Keep us posted as to how you're getting on in the lead up to Thursday.
How long is your "to do" list!? :eek:

Take very good care, and just keep counting the hours until your new life here :thumbup:

Love and hugs,
from Sam xx

Re: Bump Lionda
 

Been sent to find an empty box so sneaked back on here :sneaky:

Surrounded by boxes and stuff we haven't seen in years :blink:

Our daughter (not the one in Spain, obviously :p ) is visiting so we are palming lots of stuff off on her to sell on a car boot :D

Got to go again I can hear my name being called :p

Looking forward to the sun - thanks for reminding me about the sunscreen Crispy, it's under the sink :lol: I'll put that with our overnight bag in the car.

Re: Bump Lionda
 

It's getting exciting isnt it.
3 days to go:D

Re: Bump Lionda

Re: Bump Lionda
 

Oh my God! You are nearly there Lionda! I was reading thread thinking it was going to be a long countdown, then it suddenly dawned on me that we are in May and not April! Only 2 days to go now! Yay!!!! All the best with the move Lionda. I hope you are able to keep posting after you have moved. Spare no emotions and tell us exactly what it is like moving in your new house, and how the move went! GOOD LUCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Re: Bump Lionda
 

Thanks for all your good wishes :)

There is unfortunately a cloud over our move, I didn't say anything before but we were told by e-mail just over a week ago that the builders will not release the keys because they haven't got the escrituras! We had been told in April all the paperwork had been completed and we could move in any time after Easter! But apparently our block hasn't been done and this only came to light when I asked how we collect the keys, as we will be arriving on Saturday when the office is shut.:ohmy: It will be done in the next few weeks (manana!) so we have had to find somewhere to rent until it is ready. I posted a message on the urbanisation website forum and someone with a holiday home there contacted us so we will be renting for the first month. At least we will be on site to oversee what is happening.

Re: Bump Lionda
 

:sneaky:

That shouldn't dampen for spirits........!

You've worked sooooo hard for this, stay positive and enjoy....the weather is fab...so you'll have time on the beach ...relaxing and soaking up the sun before it becomes very real.

Wishing you all the very best sweetheart....I'll be thinking of you :wub:

We are not far so we could come to see you for a day trip :thumbsup:

Can not believe it hun.......nearly here at last.

Got all my fingers and toes crossed for you...hopefully the keys will be released sooner rather than later.

Lots of love and best wishes for your exiting journey....oooooooo got butterflies for you.

Speak soon

:thumbsup:

Re: Bump Lionda

Re: Bump Lionda

Re: Bump Lionda
 

If you have it in writing get the lawyer to claim for the rent. ;-)

Re: Bump Lionda
 

I've kept the e-mails - if that counts :) I will ask about claiming the rent back, thanks jdr :thumbsup:

Re: Bump Lionda
