craftyhunnypie Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Posho caravan packed full, 4x4 stuffed, my car stuffed. Off to bed soon ready for day 1 of the military moving plan! Everything gone through without a hitch. I'm over excited & looking forward to the big drive there early in the morning. Will have mum for company & some nice music on & hopefully some sweeties. I'm hoping for an early to bed tonight - watch corrie that we recorded & then up at 5.30am. Back & to each day until Tuesday evening, which is the chickens & cat run & all the eglus & cube. We are travelling with them once they have started to roost up. Have taken Redwings advice about how to transport them. Lots of boxes, with rolled up towels between each, plenty of ventilation etc. It's the bit we are most stressed about - we don't care how long it takes to move for all our belongings, as long as the chooks & cat are ok. Looking forward to cleaning & arranging stuff in its place the other end & having tea at one of the local pubs. No booze though as driving back & may have to take over from hubby if he is tired & vice versa. Our new journey in life starts here!
