Moving house, Friday, December 9-10 2016

Moving house. Like it, or not.

Are you enjoying yourselves?

/Very well done, gentlemen of Kuiper [www.kuiperbv.nl] from Weesp: great work. Nothing broken, well planned, and very little stress for us. Next time the coffee will be stowed last.

/Saturday December 10 2016: cleaning. Around 12:30 the new owners will pay us a visit, so we have to crack on. Of course we're very clean, but there are a few things to do. By seven the house is cleaner than ever before, and we have to say goodbye. Bye sweet house, our home since May 6th, 2005.

 Forgot one thing, as it was in the cellar behind a white sheet of something. The jack of my dad, het used to lift the boat. One of a pair. Too heavy for hand luggage, but I am devising a cunning plan to get it here after all. It's a great tool.

Dinner at M&M's. Lovely sauerkraut, and, as a proper old fashioned farewell dessert: Saroma! We're so grateful to you guys for dinner and staying the last two nights, including a Zoomba. We were planning an air bed and sleeping bag, but staying over in an empty house is no fun. Where do you sit? The stair are the only place you can sit. But not the whole evening.

And, we're very grateful for our neighbours of nr. 6, for allowing us to fill their rubbish container with all the stuff that did not fit in ours any more. And, for being great neighbours. We're sure we'll see you in Spain! :-)

/Someone else moved on this day, only a little bit more definite: Peter van Straaten. Sadly missed already, but thank you for all the laughs and smiles. (Portrait ©Siegfried Woldhek)
