Well, we've finally packed up the flat, our home for nearly three years. It felt like the gods were against us after having various friends turn up the day before our departure with problems that needed sorting. Not that we sorted them, sometimes you can only listen and sympathize, but we hope we helped in some way.

Anyway as a result it meant we didn't really get started till about 6pm and stayed up till 2am cleaning. It's now 2pm and after an early start and cramming my corsa with as much stuff as I could, we're en route to davids moms to say a big goodbye to the family, before heading to kinver to do the same thing with mine, before a 2am start to get back to brum to get the coach to manc airport. What a palaver! But, I guess these things have to be done for the greater good!

Anyway, that's all for now, but let's hope there's no more glitches till we get to the airport, it's going to be another looooooooong day ;)
