House.......GONE

Well we've done it, we've done our last Car boot on Sunday and boy was it cold. What didn't sell went to the heart foundation and the local recycling plant the following day. Monday lunchtime signed the documents transferring ownership of the house over to the new owners.




Tuesday took the caravan into storage then spent the rest of the day sorting out the documentation needed to inform of change of address.
This morning loaded some clothes and things into the car and dropped them off at our daughters, we will probably be doing that a lot up to Friday.
We've arranged to move the big items out this Saturday (local white van man) and Sunday we will do some final tidying up of the house ready for the new owners to move into on Monday the 6th of December.

So all in all things are coming together and we are on the move, we are praying that this weather will break as Little Switzerland as the locals call Pontrhydyfen can be a dicey place to drive in icy conditions.
For those not familiar with this small Welsh village its famous son's and daughters are Richard Burton, Ivor Immanuel, Geraint Griffiths, and Rebecca Evans and of course our daughter Kristina.
(Have to keep her sweet, she's my new landlady for the next two months)

I was asked if we are planning a farewell party for friends and neighbours, (Tho' I've a sneaking suspicion the neighbours have a load of flags ready to hoist in the street the day I leave.)
I've informed that if we do have a fare well party I'll ask that no presents are purchased as we'll have no where to store them, but if they want to contribute to the fuel costs the more they donate the further away they can send us.
