The weekend has started early

Yeah baby, driving away from my last job today was a great feeling. Why? Because I have tomorrow and Monday off work! Time for a long weekend.

It's not all fun and games though as we will be using tomorrow and Monday to sort out some more stuff for moving to Aussie. Tomorrow we will be putting a few things on TradeMe and finishing off sorting the things we are going to put into our garage sale. There is plenty to sell so if you want a bargain, give me a call!

I mentioned the other day that the Consulate have said they are happy with the relationship side of things and all we need is to have a medical check. We have booked the check for Monday. Following the check Mrs B needs to have an x-ray done so we have chosen a place in Auckland where they have everything in one building. There are only a few places that the Consulate will let you go, so we picked the most convenient one!

Tomorrow once we have sorted the garage sale / TradeMe stuff, we are heading over to Whangamata to spend the weekend with Grom and Kim. Can't wait to see them! It will probably be our last chance to see them before we go, but we know that we will see them again soon in Australia. Most of Kim's family is either there or on their way there, so we will see them when they come to visit. I wonder how much hassling they will need to be convinced to come and live over there too...?

Had the opportunity to catch up with Roger P today. Man it was great to see him. We haven't caught up for ages so it was nice to have a chinwag over an eye popping flat white from In Stone here in Cambridge. He has also been in Aussie recently for a holiday and had a great time. His sister lives in Melbourne too, so if he comes over at some stage, we may be able to catch up again. That would be sweet.

Got so many people to catch up with before we go. You know who you are, so be prepared.

Come over to Australia,
It's not gonna fail ya.
Come there for the sun,
Come there for the fun.
Fly over on a plane,
Come and visit Shane.

All my own work. I have missed my true calling.

*Bows emphatically*
