Since I have lost my precious car, I have borrowed my brother’s little Panda Super Run-about; (well, he hasn’t passed his test yet!) - anyways, it’s proving to be more effective as a stay parked at the moment, as the DVLA say the SORN expired before my dad bought the car, and my insurance does not register on the national database yet! So I can’t retax it online…..plus!  The battery is dead…

Apart from that though; it’s a little belter!

In the meantime i continue, this novel approach of one foot in front of the other; and well, I may just continue this approach where work is concerned (even in NZ if I find digs close enough!)…

On the New Zealand front, I am still awaiting some information off my future employers to enable me to submit my Visa application, and after Friday, they will be the ones holding me up, as I have my Immigration medical then…yes we are talking the “ordeal” involving 6 blood tests, urine test, chest X-ray…(cough)… etc…

Since I am soooo organised my house still isn’t on the market but I hope to get a few valuations and rectify that this week; I’ve decided to target the first time buyer market as I have no chain to speak of, plus as an incentive I think i will include the white ware from the kitchen in the sale (brand new fridge-freezer, dishwasher and washing machine), and a few other furnishings as and where desired…

In other news….I’m “back” down in London on Wednesday but this time I will be taking a partner in crime from work with me, in order to introduce them to a client (as my impending replacement), so should be fun
