I'm typing this in our cold, empty kitchen in our cold, empty house. A lorry has just taken away the skip full of junk that was sitting on our drive. Our goods departed in a 40' container truck yesterday and I have only a soon-to-be-returned laptop and soon-to-be-disconnected broadband connection here. Our passports just arrived - yay! so we are good to go. More good news is that we accepted an offer on this house yesterday too, so another loose end is tied. The best news is that we can finally stop concentrating on the details of getting out of here, and start looking to the future.
In other words, Adios UK, Hello America!
