The move...Part 2...

On Saturday, we took the Mals over the Chase for a good walk around...we then went into Cannock to watch the Rugby World Cup Final...England didn't win, but they couldn't have played much better. For a team that was written off before the tournament had even begun, they did very well. Following the match we went back to The Elms for the karaoke...we stayed over at SJ's parents and then came back home on Sunday morning.

On Sunday, we went round my parents for a bite to eat, then headed down the road to Radlett...we arrived about 16:00 and started to do some of the cleaning. The house was pretty dirty so it needed a real good scrub. Overnight we stayed at The Red Lion.

Monday morning, SJ's furniture arrived bright and early, the removal guys had it all in the house and in place by about 13:00. Not bad for a container load! We got most of the stuff into place and a lot of the boxes opened but there was still a lot to do...

The following day, we picked up my Dad from Watford Junction train station so he could start work converting the shed into kennels for Indi & Chief. We unpacked some more stuff and got some curtains and stuff from Dunelm. Wednesday & Thursday were similar in terms of us fixing things to walls and generally getting things straighter...on Friday though, my Mom came down to help with things...by the end of the day on Saturday, all the curtains were up, and the majority of rooms were relatively straight.

On Sunday, I travelled back up to Rugeley with my parents and picked up the dogs from the kennels. Indi was excited but Chief had the hump!
