The all new "Where are you today?" thread

[apc2010]

Off to werk.......

[Steve]

Today is house clearing the final frontier

All a bit sad

Fire tomorrow then? 

May be

Uncle's been through this lately and so have many many others. Not sure if it's harder when they're alive as you dither over nigh on every item - I will now have a lift full of stuff she might want to see one day.

All in all it seems being orphaned at an early age and having no success with foster/adoptive parents is an option to maybe explore if reincarnation gives me the chance

 Oh Steve       Parents eh who'd have 'em?  More trouble than they are worth sometimes.

I had to clear out my Fathers house many years ago. He lost his marbles at a relatively early age and the guilt my sister and I felt when we tricked him into going into a nursing home (it's only for a few days dad it's your holiday) was awful. 

Nick is right one does feel like a burglar going through very personal belongings. In a way I was lucky because other than a few 'bits and bobs' everything either went into a skip or to a local charity shop.

How much did you get for the marbles...?

Am still in Werstshire.  ......   have to leave around 5am tomorrow to get to work in Southampton.   

 

What could possibly go wrong?   

Left 0510, beautiful morning, stopped off for coffee at Newbury and signed in at 0819.

Oh I didn't sell those, I needed them for me.  Do you want to borrow some?

Many thanks all, this is a very good place when you're a bit daunted or down

Have a thought too for Uncle who's had to do it recently.   


And yes thanks it went well, just took a lot longer than planned today.  Two brilliant blokes from a local auctioneer took loads of stuff away (we find out Saturday how much Mum gets for it all) and Mrs K and I ferried the rest to the tip and lastly my brother who had beer available.

And we get home and find the whole house has fused.  Still got no lighting circuit downstairs 

More beer to the rescue

Mr C seems intent on moving piles of 'crap' from one room to another.
