Whilst I wait for the gas man to arrive at my house here I thought I would update on our impending move to Amsterdam.

 

Rich and I now have an apartment to move into which means the date we will be heading over looks set to be the 11th July!!!  I cant believe it has come around so quickly, I guess I should start to think about packing the house up!

 

My last day at work here in the UK will be Friday 6th July and then we will be having a few leaving drinks with family and friends on Sat 7th July.  My mum is coming to ours on the Monday to help clean out the house.  I know I could do this by myself but there is something special about how clean your mum can make things. 

 

I had the removal people come over this morning and they have sized up all of our belongings ready to order the van to pick it all up.  This is the first time I have ever moved and had the luxury of having removal people do it all so am sadly excited about this prospect.

 

The gas man is coming to do the important checks so we can rent the house out and our new tenant arrives here on the 12th July.

 

The saddest thing I have to do this week is say goodbye to Keith :(  I really am upset about this but I know it is better for him.  Luckily friends are taking him on so I am sure I can visit once in a while.

 

Its all so real now its actually quite scary!
