Things are beginning to 'crank up a gear' with our impending move. It's been more than six weeks now since we accepted the offer on the london flat so I've started to search for properties locally so that we could have something lined up should we get to complete soon.
Found some real 'stunners' one of which was vacant possesion, however it turns out that even though they have the same postal address as us, because they are on the other side of the river they are in a different borough (river forms the borough boundary). This wouldn't necessarily be too much of a problem but it adds a bit to our journey time if we travel on foot/powertrike into town ;().
Have one property lined up to go and view next week, which is on THIS side of the river albeit in a different borough. It's still within 3 miles of where we are now though, so this has been an 'eye opener' how close we are to the boundaries with other boroughs -we sort of knew about the river , but were confused when the postal addresses were the same :(.
gom's condition is still very much up and down on a daily basis. Even though the weather is considerably cooler. We're still more or less sticking to the morning routine for everything we do. After his usual morning gym sessions he can invariable manage to get up the stairs in 'super fast' time (well for him it is), yet yesterday, we went out to a luncheon event at about 10.30 getting back about 3.30 and he really struggled to get up the stairs, and had a 'little accident' in the bargain :(
We usually take 'precautions whenever we go out by visiting the 'used beer department' before returning home, but yesterday even this didn't seem to help.
Today the 'used beer department' was occupied but he didn't feel any risk so we came straight home, but .... yep he got 'wet'. Then he went to work in the study and concentrated on the work he was doing that he left it too late and ended up leaving a trail before he reach the loo, fortunately the study has a vinyl floor but the rest of his route is carpeted :( So another change of clothes!!
