First stage of unpacking completed - yeehar!

I am knackered!!  Mark and I spent the weekend opening the rest of the boxes, moving furniture into place, unpacking, repacking and sorting out.  Generally the packers did a very good job but some of the labelling was very confusing; often we found things packed in separate boxes and then were labelled for different parts of the house.  So annoying.  In particularl cables were not packed with the relevant electrical items and screws and nuts and bolts for putting furniture together were packed separately.  In one instance we found that the boxes that I had bought especially for packing all our photograph albums had been ripped up and used for filling and the albums packed separately in other boxes.  Crazy!  Hey ho!

We have done as much as we can for the moment.  The next job is to put up the pictures but we will do that next weekend.  Before we can finally get sorted we have to wait for the landlord to empty his stuff from our storage room.  But that's OK for now.  We could do with a break.  It gives us time to think about what we want to do next.  Hopefully we will get everything finished before Christmas but we will see.

We are supposed to be here for 3-5 years.  All I can say is if Maersk wants me to move before then, it had better be for a s*dd*ng good reason!!!!!!
