Moving Day
Thursday, 18 August, 2005
It is lunchtime and I had hoped to be unpacking by now. But this morning I sat at home and fretted and folded up extension cords and telephone cables and tied them up with rubber bands while Ben went to his parents' place and waited with his mum.
After an hour (during which there was much frantic SMS-ing on my part wanting to know what was going on), we gave up on our movers and booked another set of removalists to come. Unfortunately they can't make it until 3pm. I'm just glad that they can make it today, even though they're going to charge us an extra $165 for the piano and $1.50 per step. At least they can do the job, they're going to come and they understand English!!

Hope it’s going/gone okay! Praying from over here!
So what happened with the original movers? They just didn’t show up??
But yay that you’re now in your new place
