Boxes everywhere!

Tuesday 20 September. The packers, Crown Relocations, have spent two days boxing up and packing everything, and I mean everything. Nothing is loose, its either in a box or wrapped in paper. Every room is stacked to the ceiling with boxes. They return tomorrow to load the container and crate up the motorbike.

Diesel was taken off yesterday, he didn't seem too happy about his crate but Airpets were courteous enough to phone last night to say he had settled in nicely. He's got to have some jabs and stool samples taken before flying to join us in about 4 weeks.

The kids are understandably excited, Alex is particularly hyper at the moment and the pair of them are a constant barrage of noise and running around. So thankfully they are staying at the Grandparents tonight.

We are exhausted.

Unfortunately the buggeration over exchange has meant that we have missed the opportunity to go to Cambodia. So thanks Fennemore's solicitors, your ineptitude IMHO has cost us lost wages, the kids education, lost sleep and also this chance to visit the temples of Seum Reup. Oh yeah, and £200 of malaria tablets.

Instead we are spending 4 nights in Singapore, flying out tomorrow evening with a special trip to the airport.
