Police Check
My police check came back this morning. All clear which is nice. Assuming Steve's will arrive tomorrow. Spent a long time folding clothes ready for the removal team. Amazing a) hw many I have and b) how long it takes to sort and fold them. We are only leaving clothes out that are not going on the container.
Heard nothing still from the US immigration people. It's hard to be patient! Still, that's what we need to be. It doesn't help that the weather is truly vile at the moment. Downpours and cold with it.

Slowly, slowly...
Email received to say the police check forms had got to the right place and they have certainly cashed the cheque.
We spent this morning sorting out which clothes were ok to be packed for the 6+ week sea trip. We bought some plastic boxes for them to go in but they are a bit pathetic. Be a shame if we've sorted the clothes wrong! Haven't finished but at least that's a start. We are taking the hangers to the charity shop having decided that they are cheap enough to buy when we get to the US. Sadly some of the ones we had have things like Aged 8 written on them, which considering the girls are both nearly 40 is quite shocking. Hey ho. Watch this space......

Things are moving
This is beginning to get exciting! Not only have we accepted an offer on the house, but our Application for Visa has been accepted. Oh my! So, we have had to get on with some paperwork, including having a police check (£40+ each) which we are still waiting for. We will also have to have an interview in London and a medical so need to get all the stuff ready for that too.
On the house front, we have just had the surveyor round for the buyers and that seems to have gone well. so actually we are still playing the waiting game to some extent but things are at least happening.
Just sent Emma's birthday present off which will hopefully be the last one we have to post!
