I am looking forward to Saturday night!!

We had one really heavy shower this morning and it was just as I was about to take Tot out and didn't last for long but as Jane phoned just at that time Tot's walk was much later than it should have been! I noticed that the 'For Sale' sign had been taken down - again!!!

I had so much to do and had to start somewhere so started with the kitchen and bagged up 10 bags of food ready to take to the new house along with all the other bits and pieces. I really can't believe we have accumulated so much stuff!!

I arrived at the house and unpacked the food and started to organise my new larder but I think things are going to be moved around a lot before I am happy with it.

Just as I was leaving the maintenance man arrived to cut the grass and clean the oven!!!! Not sure they go together but we will see.

I got home and saw Sarah, the nanny from next door, and she told me that Linda, one of the other neighbours from the drive, had been coming in last night and saw Sue and Gary removing the sign and were quite shocked to see her as they were trying to hide whilst doing it. That sign has been up and down more than any other sign in Maungatapu! obviously the Principal must have told them to get it down after Kim had spoken to him. There is now a big sign for our neighbours house for sale. I cooked lunch for Jon and Heather. As Heather was playing netball this evening she had asked for a 'proper' lunch. Unfortunately, I had taken over the pasta and lots of other stuff to the new house so quickly had to cut and fry some new potatoes for her to go with the chicken I cooked last night.

After lunch I packed some cases with my clothes ready to take over. I had a call from Joan, a friend from when I first came here, just to say good luck with the move and she will call me next week.

I had a hospital appointment at 3.30 with the gastroenterologist for a check up and once that was done and all was OK I then went to have four, yes four!!! new tyres fitted on my car.

When I got back Jon arrived at the same time so we took more boxes over to the house but the oven had not been cleaned and we think it is because I used the two locks on the door and the agent only has one of the keys. I thought he would call this evening but nothing so far.

We did a bit more sorting and cleaning and believe it or not Jon found a wine cellar in the house. It is as the back of the snooker room and really dark until you find the light switch which he did this evening. Now all we have to do is fill it - there is space for 99 bottles!!

We got back home and had dinner and tried to watch some of the programmes we have on the Sky box!!


WEATHER
Another lovely day 20 degrees but with a bit of wind
