What does two people’s accumulated stuff look like crammed in the spare room?
Something like this…
The old pre-travel world is still encroaching. A flurry of canceling and rerouting filled the last week in the UK but who would have thought it would be such a problem! A mobile phone I can’t convert to pay as you go until December, a TV license I can’t cancel without a solicitor’s note (or something equally ridiculous) and a broadband company who only now tell me they want the modem box back! A car tax about to run out which you can’t do anything about until you get a notice, a parking permit and car insurance to renew. Leaving the country is not easy. A very helpful couple of house sitters and a good friend (yes that’s you Anna and Matt and Emma!) and a carefully choreographed mail forwarding system to the rescue though hopefully! Now I just need to find out why I couldn’t get any cash out yesterday! Thankfully we stocked up on American Express travelers cheques before we left and one of our cards still works. Everything is great.
