Just had to write and say argh!!! 3 weeks to go, car is getting sold tomorrow, flat is the process of being sold, I have 2 weeks of work with about 6 months of work to do! Lots of chucking out of things! Arghhhh!!!

But on the positive side, really excited about going, at least i have a long flight to recover from all the hard work! Can't wait for the sunshine! (Oh and my fella of course!!! )

It seemed strange to us when things were being sold off - at one stage we were sitting on a sofa in an otherwise empty room!

The time will fly by.

We took loads of stuff down to charity shops and the rest went through freecycle.

When the packers came I still hadn't been through everything and they literally swept things off a table (where I was sorting stuff out) so it all got packed!

Good luck,
Karen

Remember the feeling well, borrowing furniture from friends for the last few weeks, sleeping on the floor, but as you say so exciting and well worth the wait.
Good luck with your move

Glad I'm not the only one who was confused, started questioning when I had arrived.
Anyway, thanks for the best wishes. Now comes the fun () part of organising a wedding.
