Two weeks and counting!

The first blog!

In case you are wondering, Jo (my girlfriend) and I are about to move to Wellington, New Zealand. Why? A new life I guess, different weather, different view!

So, we vacate out house in less than two weeks. The cars are up for sale, the plane tickets have been bought and we are slowing starting to pack our bags whilst we clear our junk from the house we have occupied for four years. The irony with with is that we have spent the last two year slowly improving it, the vast majority occurring in the last 6 to 12 months, including new furniture, and its not even us that's going to benefit from it!

Also, Panda and Piggy, our Guinea Pig family leave us next weekend. They were a condition of Jo moving in!! Had we stayed in the UK i think more Guinea Pigs and Rabbits would have joined us! Anyway, they are moving to a new home with Jo's sister Kath who has a much bigger garden with grass. We only have small back yard with paving stones. Great for containing them but I'm sure the grass will be exciting. I wonder what they will make of the grass as they've never seen or run amongst it before. No doubt there will be a stream of churs and whistles.
