Tuesday 8th September

A big clear up day today as we were expecting Maggie round at four thirty to put the house on the market. We started with the usual coffee then i headed in to Hesdin to get some cleaning products and some flowers for the living room, meanwhile ant made a start. I was back within the hour with all sorts of bits, including a box of wine for the evening. We started with the kitchen and worked our way through, the place looks nice after all this work, it is the first time it has had a decent clean for about three weeks. After the clean up i put up some pictures to finish off a couple of the rooms and take away attention from the nasty wall papering job in the hall. At twoish Tony dropped by for a coffee, so we stopped and chatted to him for a bit, Maggie phoned to say she would be a little early so Tony headed off and a couple of mins later Maggie arrived. She didn't say all our work was terrible so that was good and thought the stairs looked much better, she took photos and asked us some questions, then put up the for sale sign and the house is now on the market. She said things had started to pick up and she would anticipate a fair bit of interest once the house goes on line, so we will need to be on top of keeping the place clean.
After Maggie had gone there was a little emptiness in the air, we did a couple of bits but didn't really know what to do with ourselves. Ant had a bath, i spent some time on line then we watched the rest of dinner ladies. I made us some dinner, cottage pie, and we tucked in to a glass of wine or two and had a nice relaxing night, we watched the best little whorehouse in texas, one of ants favorites, then headed off to bed, a little merry and happy the place was finally up for sale.
Now i need to concentrate on the other things we need to do, getting my citizenship sorted out and making sure ant has the right credentials for emmigration, and then getting the dogs sorted with the vet. Catch you soon
