On the move…

We have started the first stage of packing up in order to move house – and it is going to be a major project believe me. When we came here to France almost five years ago we had the priceless advantage of muscle-power in the form of my two eldest sons Patrick and William. Both big, tall strong boys who handled all the lifting and packing with ease.

But now both have flown the nest in recent times – Patrick in living in Paris with his beloved and William is living back in Australia.

Now I have three left – a six year old, a four year old and a fifteen year old who is more built for comfort than effort. Plus me and the ‘man’. Together we have to pack up more than we arrived with (always the way isn’t it?) and I am worried about things like the new LCD TV and computer equipment.

Yeah, we are going to get a removal firm to do the transporting…but getting it all ready to be transported is going to require lashings of work and probably all the patience I have left!
