Empty House!













The shippers have gone!! Hurraaayyyy. They have been here all day again today. Didn't leave until about 6.30pm. This morning they carried on wrapping and packing and wrapping and packing but then a bit of excitement at about 2pm this afternoon...........the container arrived! I thought the lads were going to put everything in their lorry and then transfer it to the container at the depot but the battered old thing turned up this afternoon and it took them about 3 hours to load it in the end.
The driver of the container told us it's going on MSC Rhone which is currently docked in Liverpool. We can track the ship's journey on Marinetraffic.com. MSC Rhone looks like a battered old ship.......hope it makes it all the way to Oz!
So, now the house is pretty much empty and we are drinking champagne watching a tiny little portable telly perched on a little plastic box! Might as well get used to this, we won't see our furniture again until November!
