Thank you, each and every one of you. I really am overwhelmed - in the nicest possible way.
I'm sending good Zombie vibes to all also on or starting on this journey.
Bee, I am having a couple of glasses of wine tonight but NO whisky.
Windy, is that the florist immediately to the left of the door to flat above NWB? My late DH had the tenancy on that flat over 20 years. He and his partner had their main office also above NWB but that one was accessed from Belvedere Grove. They used 97A as additional office space. I worked from there for many years.
The taxi is booked for 0630am, the kindle and notebook are charging, the list of what remains to be packed is written and being assembled. A visit to Tesco this evening has ensured that the cats will not go hungry. The laundry is all done but not the housework. I don't anticipate being able to sleep much if at all tonight so the plan is to complete the housework and then have a long, hot, soaky bath. If I manage to nap for a couple of hours all well and good. If not, I'll be getting plenty of sleep tomorrow! I will be setting multiple alarms in case I do go to sleep.
