Boxes

Monday 20th July.

4.45am, what a way to start our first day of retirement, we should be laying in, not getting up at some unearthly hour. Must admit just can’t sleep though, really not sure why....Brian has gone to make us some tea, glad that habit hasn’t changed. Tea first, then back to the packing..  

8.10am, nearly done - just we’ve run out of  boxes, only need about 4 more. I have asked them to bring some, so once they arrive I can finish the job. 

Brian is very anxious about the whole packing scenario, I think he will feel better once things start to happen and they make some progress. 

12.40, it has been a very long morning, Bray’s arrived around 8.30, and have been non stop ever since, as have we, let’s just say I totally underestimated the amount of boxes I could fill!
They are really good, so good natured, just getting on with the job. They have had to load smaller vans and take them to the lorry parked round the corner. They are on their 3rd load.
