A camping chair and KFC

We are camping out - in our house! It's not as chilly as a tent but it's bare, no music, no TV, no nothing really.  Only a camping chair or two and conversation is getting us through. 
Tomorrow we start our journey to our new life!
We have been overwhelmed by the kindness we have been shown by the people of the village. Wick has been a lovely place to live. It is a vibrant place with lots going on - catering for both young and old and anyone in between!
It will always have a special place in our heart. We bought our first family home here, seven years ago and we have loved every minute of living here. It's time for us to move on, to create new memories, make new friends and experience new cultures. We are grasping this opportunity with both hands and we are running with it! Wish us luck!

Another tick in the box!

With almost 3 weeks to go we have sold the car! I will be sad to see my little Polo go. We have travelled far and wide and she's never let me down.
Another plus is that we have 'alternative' transport to get us safely to our destination. Let me introduce to you 'Vince to Vito'!


We needed a vehicle that would suit our needs. Two adults, one child, one dog and one cat plus associated luggage would not have squeezed into the Polo. This however - bags of room! 
My husband was thinking 'The A Team"
Daughter was thinking 'Scooby Doo'
I was thinking 'OMG!!!'
I must admit, it's growing on me. We've got a big journey ahead. Come on Vinny - don't let us down!
