Going to Canada eh ?

We heard yesterday that our prospective buyer is unable to get funding so it looks like we are back on the market again. This is what I feared would happen and now we have to look for a tennant PDQ.

Most of the “white ” goods have been taken away today and the house clearance firm comes tomorrow for the rest of the things.

Penny has also gone today and Andrew left at the week end so that house is getting very quiet and empty.

Soon it will be all on its own.

Lets hope next week will bring us better news

Last day at work. Several nice comments from suppliers and colleagues. Goldwing sent a card and a gift very thought full of them.

Wieland gave a wallet, some currency samples, and a lottery ticket in the hope that it may solve the housing problem.

I managed a farewell speech with out getting a lump in my throat but the individual goodbyes were another story.

Got rid of loads of furniture tonight so we can not sit down in the front room. Andrew moves out on Sunday and we gradually give everything else away during the rest of the week.

Sale of house is stalled. The buyer is away and his solicitor is on holiday so it is difficult to get information at the moment.

No1 son keeps changing his mind every 2 hours about what he is going to do. Lin’s Mum does the same, unfortunately he does odd numbered hours and she does even numbers so we are never too sure what is happening.

We are hoping to meet Lin’s dressmaker at the weekend to sort out her website before we go. This will be interesting if we are to administer a web site for some one in the uk all the way from Canada when we are not sure if she can use email too well. If it works out it will be www.distinctive-waistcoats.com, though at the moment all you will get is a blank page if you try to look for it.

If you were looking for Pete’s blog on how things go when the family emigrate to Canada you are in the right place. So book mark it and come back later to see what’s new.

Departure date is 24 May. I don’t expect to be writing much before that as most of the interesting stuff and pictures will be after we arrive .
