Sunday - Day of Rest (yesterday).

So, yesterday really was a day of rest.

Realising the imminence of our eviction from 20 Spinneybrook Way, yesterday spent clearing large items from our garage and doing other sundry physical activities.

So up at 7:30 a.m. - take dogs out for an hour (Ben & Lisa here this weekend).
9:00 a.m. - Load some rubbish into the Volvo (inc. Hostesss [not Rita, the wooden heating trolley thing]).
9:10 a.m. - Go to Ben's old house and load trailer with old bed from his garage and fill remaining space in car with
bags of garden waste.
9:30 a.m. - Ben and me at Raynesway tip, empty trailer & car.
9:55 a.m. - Back at Spinneybrook Way, Load washing machine & Fridge/freezer into trailer/car and take them to
66 Peartree (rented property).
10:30 a.m. - Back at Spinneybrook.Clean carpets in motorhome and move surplus stuff either into loft or into rubbish
bags.
12:00 p.m. - Load old settee from kitchen into trailer, fill rest of car with yet more rubbish - down to Raynesway.
Wear settee as a hat as I move it from trailer to skip at Raynesway.
12:45 p.m. - Down at 157 Sinfin Ave (rented property), to assess how much room there is in the garage to hold
some more items from garage at Spinneybrook.
13:00 p.m. - Load old bathroom suite from Sinfin Avenue into trailer and car (to make more room) and take to
Raynesway.
14:00 p.m. - Back at Spinneybrook. Continue sorting garage.
16:00 p.m. - Clean kitchen floor (dogs have gone) - major job as Alfuie the hairiest animal in the world (after the
Tibetan Yak).
18:00 p.m. - more work.....getting tired now - time for tea, diddle-de-dee.

So, all this was probably nowt compared to the life of a boy chimney sweep, but it's left me tired this morning. Only the garden to do now, oh and pack rucksack for trip, oh and tidy all house, oh and load motorhome, oh and move boxes from garage.....
