So we are almost ready. Helen and I spent Sunday and Monday packing up the house and dismantling furniture and beds. Over 80 boxes in the end and I made a mistake with the ones in the loft. I packed many up there since christmas but forgot the weight of them. When I came to take them out the loft and down the ladder I realised that maybe I should have made them lighter. Some were really difficult to lift down, but all was done in the end and everything is ready.
Kids moved to Mum and Dads on Sunday and by Monday afternoon all the stuff we needed over there was taken. It looked a lot of stuff but as the other bits would be in a house where we would not be for lot of the time we had to take things to Mum that we did not actually need day to day but that could not be replaced if we were burgled up there. After a bit of sorting out we managed to get organised and put a lot of stuff up into the loft.
We slept there last night and this morning we all left at 7am to get over here for school and to meet the removal men. Once they have arrived and packed up I will work from here until end of school, get the kids and Mum will come over and pick them up.
Once Helen finished work today we will travel to Kings Lynn, to meet our landlord, sign the contract and get the keys. We will sleep there overnight and wait for the removal van to arrival tomorrow.
Lets just hope the removal men turn up today or it might get a bit complicated.
