Moving in Day – Finally it’s here!

Posted on November 6, 2004 by Henry Elliss

We woke up expecting a hard day, and boy did we get that in spades. Thankfully we had a crew of strong and hearty labourers to help out – biggest thanks must today go out to Claire, David, Sue and Keith. Special mentions also to Simon and Rachel, Sheila and John – for the kind donations to our sparse furniture collection.

Highlights of the day were sleeping, the occassional rest between van loads and knowing we still have shed-loads more to do. Low-lights of the day included realising the only channel we could get on the Telly was Five, featuring the classic Jason and the Argonaughts. Let’s face it, it couldn’t get much worse from here on in… could it?

One good thing to come from this week’s rail strikes (and the subsequent week WFH) was my daily sunrise walks - something I really miss when I have to go into London. Fingers crossed that 2023 allows for a few more of them.
