Week Beginning 28th May

It's Bank holiday in the UK again. We have missed both!! On Monday night we have a call from mum who is looking after the house while we are trying to sell it. We had asked her to discuss with the agents what we should do. The price is dropped as we need to sell quickly. An hour later my mum rings back to let us know the house has sold. The only thing is she mentions is that he wants to complete within 4 weeks. This was just what we needed.

Kerry is sad to see the house sold as she loved it but this is a major worry out of the way, especially as he wants to complete so quickly.

Later in the week we get an e-mail from Pickfords over here. They have been sent our details and require some information from us. I reply with our address and we are both relieved and hope to have our furniture soon as after a few weeks of sleeping on the floor and sitting on kitchen chairs and the like we could really do with it.

The weather now is starting to get chilly, the rain mainly comes at night but you can certainly feel winter is on it's way. The termperatures during the day have dropped to around 15 degrees and the nights down to around 7.

Kayla has been wanting for a long time to see Kangaroo's so I have a word with Rob at work and he lets me know of a sanctury where you can see them. It's called Healville Sanctuary, and he e-mails me the link to the website. (if you are interested...

I decide if the weather is ok we will go over the weekend.

The weather is very changable over the weekend and Kerry decides she needs to clean the carpets as the are not too clean. We go and get a cleaner which will do what we need and expect as most of the house is hard floor that it won't take too long and we can go and see the Kangaroos on the Sunday....wrong it took all weekend.

I think to myself that I need to get Kerry away from the house and start exploring places. Next weekend is bank holiday weekend (Queens Birthday). The ideal time to get us all out and about.
