...well just moving home anyway as the landlord wants to put the rent up so im having to move somewhere cheaper and out of my home town unfortunately
been packing the past few weeks or so when i get a spare minute and i just seem to keep finding even more stuff that i forgot i had

or more like didn't know i had
i start moving Wednesday, i will be moving as much as i can myself in my car untill my 'ol man gets the Luton taillift on friday for all the bulky stuff!
probably wont be on for a bit after this weekend especiallly if BT don't pull their fingers out, been in touch with them and they say broadband will be connected this coming saturday but i wont hold my breath as i heard they may be striking, i ******* hope not!

yeah it's a bit bigger T'shot and probably about 8 miles further than where i am now, im currently in Marlow Buckinghamshire and will be going to Maidenhead in Berkshire, im also hoping to finally get a display cabinet like i mentioned to MRD to display some of my goodies instead of them being jailed in brown boxes

Leaving Buckinghamshire...!?! How dare you! I thought the people of Marlow were looking a bit sad last week when I popped over. Now I know why
I feel for you though with the fear of moving. We've just moved our business. It was only three miles to a bigger building but, man alive, it was painful!
It's all the details, like the things you mentioned that keep you up at night, will the phones work, can we set the alarm, can we flush the toilets!!!

ahh moving is always a bummer. When you are moving the toys just pack everything carelfully. I moved once and for a year I though I forgot a box with my 2 APC and Wolverine in it. Had me completely stressed out. Luckily I had packed them and for got I moved them to my parents house

I like moving! I like the fresh start and the chance to rearrange everything.
That said, since moving to this new place I have since brought all of my toys out of storage, next time will be a major ballache...
If you're short of moving boxes, always worth asking a greengrocer for any spares.

im certainly looking forward to the change of scenery Baron, been in this place for 6 years this year but lived in marlow since the age of about 5, its all the stressful bits that are included with moving im not liking
thanks for the tip on boxes by the way, just hope the recycle guys take them all when im done
all toys so far are packed safely, its gonna be like christmas when i come to unbox as i know im gonna forget what i put in each box and i intend on leaving none behind in the operation
Marlow has changed so much over the years shaunyboy, not sure how often you used come into marlow through the years but the plus point was that it used to be full of pubs good ones too! you wouldn't be able to have a drink in each pub before either closing time was upon you or you were about to collapse

its a lovely place to live in but its just so damn expensive now!
