This is our last evening in Spinneybrook as the new tenants move in tomorrow morning. The house looks as clean as a new pin - we tiptoe around not daring to sabotage the strenuous recent efforts of the decorator, the gardener, the carpet and upholstery cleaner and the two women cleaners who spent 5 hours apiece here today. One could now eat their dinner off the kitchen floor & probably just as well as all our plates together with the rest of our personal belongings are up in the loft. That loft is choca! My car is sold now and so all our 'immediate' stuff is either in the back of Leigh's car or stashed in Loretta's garage and I know for sure that I will never find anything again! However, I'm not too worried because I have my eye on my handbag and in there is my purse and my mobile phone and my charger. So, all the essentials are in place.

Up very early tomorrow to strip bed, empty dishwasher, final whizz round with mop and duster and tip toe out of here. i.e from the land of luxury and plenty to the impoverished confines of the Motorhome. Leigh heads off for Leeds tomorrow and I am not sure which direction to go in yet...either to Leeds with Leigh, up to Loretta's to stay there or head off for Kim and Marion's to collect my bike, as at least I will have some means of transport. Two phone calls received today from two lots of tenants, one saying that the bath is leaking and water is coming down the stairs and the other telling me that the patio doors have fallen out and need replacing. Hmmmmm, not sure how to tackle those problems right now - I'll think about it tomorrow once I know which direction I'll be travelling in. Good night!
