Though I thought the larger items would take a while we have amazingly sold the Big Fridge, the big table and now theres someone coming to collect our beloved recliner sofa.... That was a little faster than I anticipated We've got offers on the big bed too, but a bit too low so we'll hang on a bit and if nothing in a week or so we may accept one
Lucky we still have one original, from my almost very first post, 2.5 seat Ikea leather sofa, which I find is fitting, one of the 1st things I ever bought here will be one of the last things we hopefully sell or give away.
So we're going to be living in quite a sparce space for a few weeks before we move to the luxury of a hotel for a few nights before we fly out
Of course there's still a tonne of small silly things, tools in the shed, the dining chairs which no one wanted with the table, the chests of drawers and wardrobes and shelving, whch probably won't stand a dismantle. But for the most part we're just clearing out the little things.. still some computer parts to go, and I still have all my SBC's and Models to sell as a job lot...and the bicycles and of course the car.
I need to spend a bit of money on her 1st a full service already booked, and a deep clean to get her shiney and looking new for the best price. The deep clean is surpisingly expensive though, I never realised car detailing was so lucrative now.
I remember when it became a thing in the 80's it was just an extra service you'd get at a car wash for an extra 50quid or so.. now they are charging up to 1K for a full clean, inside, outside, engine bay, sills, tyres and minor scratch removal...jeez.. but if it gets me full whack for the car I may have to just go for it.
Its been a mental few weeks, but its progressing, We won't exactly be sitting cross legged on the floor come Dec 19 but we sure will be a lot less asset rich. :D
