Well, we're about five weeks off departure and the house is an ever-increasing combination of piles and stacks as we get each room organised. Currently, we're up in Oban for a few days to get some rest and enjoy time with Grandad and Grannie, but we will soon be returning to Stirling with a second wind for more of the same.
It's amazing how much stuff we don't have! Definitely one of the fringe benefits of moving regularly over the past five years, in that we have sifted our stuff and binned everything over the years that hasn't had a heart connection. We've managed to move on some furniture too, and raise some welcome pennies in the process, and the result is that we only have to box up the kitchen and throw some stuff from the lounge together and then hey presto - we're ready to fly!
Well, that and the small matter of organising the air freight... cue Grannie Oban! She's a dab hand at all that, so we'll let her lead the way in filling the water containers with as much jungle formula and as many pairs of new socks as possible.
Before we know it, we will be heading down the road towards Edinburgh airport with our cases in hand and a twinge of excitement :) Between now and then, it's all hands to the pump!
