We moved the last of our stuff out of our house today. We met with our landlords and the new owner at the house and did all the changeover. The new owner is called Ross. He has already been really sweet by letting us leave loads of stuff in his garage while we house sit as we don't get our new house until the 22nd. He is also using a few pieces of our (borrowed) furniture as he hasn't bought any yet. The other wonderful thing was that our landlords - Michelle and Glenn - brought a bottle of bubbly with them to celebrate and they bought us each house warming presents. We got some lovely wine glasses and a pizza stone. We did buy a few glasses in a charity shop which were nice enough but did have Royal & Sun Alliance etched on them!
It was a very tiring week as I have had a stinking cold and Ian has worked late every night apart from yesterday. Thankfully a friend came across town to help me out yesterday afternoon as cleaning the house, moving furniture and entertaining Ethan was proving to be a bit much! It is wonderful to have new friends already that we can rely on for that sort of thing. We also plan to keep in touch with Michelle and Glenn who are wonderful people.
This afternoon was spent watching Love Actually on DVD - very soppy but i love it.
