Been a hectic two days as all of our stuff has been packed and shipped off to Australia now. The packing firm sent 3 chaps on Thursday to pack all of our stuff and they were very efficient and friendly. In fact they were a bit too efficient as anything lying around the house got packed (William was close to being put in a crate at one stage...hmmm...tempting). Our 20 foot container was absolutely packed full with no room left at all - we did manage to squeeze a few extra items in such as our dining room table and chairs which we were pleased about.
Seeing the lorry pull away knowing that the next time we see our stuff will be in Melbourne....was quite an emotional moment....gulp!
Last night we had a really lovely meal with both sets of families. Was great to catch up with everyone....not so great to say goodbye though....
Only a matter of hours to go now....Jack and I checked everyone in online....taxi comes at 5pm and our flight is at 10:15pm.....next post will be from Australia...
Glad you all got everything sorted in the end before going, must have been a relief!
ReplyDeleteYou'll be in Australia now, hope you had great flights.
