We’re still busy with another round of packing boxes and cartons. So just what are we putting in them this time around? Down came all the photos off the wall, each one wrapped carefully in bubble wrap before placing in a carton. Robin’s half forgotten wine collection filled another couple of boxes. The wine glasses, crystal bowls and platters have all been safely wrapped and boxed. Computer stuff, all sorts of electrical cords, a tall ladder and steel cabinet, garden pots and ornaments, it all got packed away and loaded onto the green trailer, and taken up to our lock-up. Then of course it all happened in reverse, as everything was unloaded. The red sack barrow borrowed off Robin’s brother Gary is proving invaluable.
When everything was safely stored away, the roll-a-door pulled down and padlocked, we took ourselves off to the Levin Adventure Park for our picnic lunch. Youngsters were busy having fun in the playground, family groups were enjoying their own picnics in the sunshine, and a large group were busy munching on fish and chips straight out of the paper, the very best way to eat them. The park Kiosk offers indoor seating if the weather turns inclement, plus boiling water for that all important cup of tea or coffee, and a microwave to heat up something for lunch. We took advantage of the available hot water to make our coffee.
After our tasty lunch of piping hot coffee, and bacon and potato salad sammies, we drove around to see if any progress had been made on our new home. Nope, not yet, it still looks just the same, so no new photo. Perhaps next time we visit we will have something new to share.
