D-52

So the end of our holiday is looming, and I have to say we have made some good progress with our sorting out plans.

We went out to a couple of estate agents on Tuesday, to get the flat looked at. RSK came around straightaway and were very enthusiastic about the place. They organised a viewing the next day (youngish couple, expecting a baby in March) and we received a phone call a couple of hours later, with an offer! Fingers crossed it'll go through- if everything goes according to plan, we'll be moving out of here on 9 December and squatting holidaying friends' houses until it's time to set off.

I've packed all our books, CDs, DVDs and the decorative bits and pieces scattered around the living room. It's looking very bare now and I suppose it'll feel a bit weird to live in an empty flat for the next four weeks, but I figured there's no way I'll be in a mood to pack things whilst under the influence of my usual work stress. Although I have plans to not get myself so worked up about everything when I go back on Wednesday. After all they've just survived 2 weeks without me - I think - and I'll be leaving in 6 weeks. Aah, feels so nice to write this :)
