Thanks guys
Have been planning the move for ages… I couldn’t book the ferry til I’d hired the van, as they needed to know the dimensions. I couldn’t hire the van til I knew how much stuff I had. So I basically had to pack as much as I could so I could see how it looked in boxes. I can only afford to do a single crossing on the ferry, so it’s all got to go in one load. So I started selling loads on ebay, partly to get some cash together, and partly to just GET RID OF STUFF. Quite liberating, really. But it feels like I’ve been busy forever, and I am sooooo looking forward to the day when I can get home form work and not have to start arranging things, phoning people, checking stuff, blah blah blah. I’ve given most of my furniture to charity, or to friends, so now I’m sitting at the computer on a wobbly plastic fold-out chair, with the monitor on a coffee table that really is uncomfortably low down!
I don’t have a job sorted yet, but have an interview lined up which looks really promising. I plan to use my fist few days (nefore I get a job & start work) to traul the island for yarn shops. If there aren’t any groups, I will most definitely start one!
Sorry for the lengthy ramble there - I’m so excited though! There is a very real danger that I might actually pop!
