No blog yesterday, as we had company. Bruce had a good time here - Deb made a chilli and we cracked open a couple bottles of wine. A nice time and Bruce scored a couple of extra items from the house...
... which is now sold! We exchanged today, after lots of to-ing and fro-ing. The buyers decided to play silly buggers, after telling us when they looked around the house that they were tired of being mucked about by agents and so on. Well, they've made no friends here, so bad luck on them I say.
We complete on Wednesday 11th Feb, move our stuff out the Monday before, and fly out to Canada on Valentines Day - Saturday 14th Feb. Now all we need to do is cancel a load of stuff (electricity, gas, phone) and arrange for mail to be forwarded, financial stuff to sort out, bags to pack ... egad! It's all too much!!
Still, it's a great day, which means that after Valentines Day 2007, I can become a Canadian citizen. Niiiiice.
We're off to Jerry's in the morning, staying over and coming back on Sunday. We also booked a short stay in Brussels - our final goodbye to Europe.
An early night tonight, I think. It's been a bit emotionally draining.
