    So after a brief interlude thinking of more important things and important people we return to the diary.

    I would be in the libary but there were no computers free so I have come to one of the local libraries where there are computers free but that opportunity comes with the added benefit of a constantly barking dog immediatly outside.

    Yes I know the owner had a dog...yes I know she couldn't bring it in the library...yes I know she had to park it somewhere but seriously....have you ever tried to compose an email to the buyers solicitor (one slip and you're up the creek) with barking in your ears. Tis not easy.

    Hope I don't upset anyone with what I have posted to Taxi. I received that just after my mum had died and it was just lovely. Perfectly summed up where we were at after the gruelling journey called dying of cancer. Will get a card tomorrow and just put that in.

    So...in my more mundane life....all regs are copied (building, planning etc.) and are going to their solicitor tomorrow. Survey Monday. I'm hoping by the end of next week we will have an idea of a moving date and I am hoping it will be about 25th Nov.

    Tonight I've got a bit of cleaning to do and some counting. I am going to count boxes in prep of doing a list of what needs to be moved. The next job is quotes for removals and storage.

    Hope you are all okay, particularly those of you who were close to Taxi.
