Hooray the waiting’s over...

At long last the estate agent’s telephoned to confirm that this coming week we will be getting the contracts signed and that completion for the of the sale of the house will be done and dusted by the end of the month.
The young couple it appears have been hounding their mortgage lender as they are eager to be in their new home before Christmas.
I know its one month overdue on our plans time scale but at least it’s arrived and the wait did give us enough time to clear out most of our things.
So now it’s all go to get the final bits together and to prepare for our new adventure after Christmas.
In a way it may be a good thing as the sites will be charging high rates for Christmas and the New Year period and all that will be over by the time we get on the road. The down side is that we will be living through the coldest months of January to March in what is basically a box on wheels.
It will be interesting to see how we fare and what problems we encounter, but at least it will give us a taste of the worst of it weather wise and if we find that we have survived that with a smile on our faces then the rest will be downhill (fingers crossed).
The only items we have left to sell are the conservatory suite, a guitar and stand, a Corner TV unit and a Microwave convector oven.
We have a car load of things for this Sundays Car Boot which with luck will leave us just one more remaining car boot after that to finish clearing out our bits and bobs. Whatever's left over goes on a bonfire
