Today is going to be a little busy – Bob has gone to a local hospital to visit a dear friend who is extremely ill. Unfortunately he has taken my car, as his is STILL having new locks fitted [they sent the wrong part from Germany] We have NO idea when he will get the Skoda back, and may have to return from Dorset to collect it [Aviva have at least promised to refund car hire, even tho the insurance doesn't really cover that] Please pray this gets resolved soon. Folk here have been brilliant helping out with the transport situation, but it is getting difficult!
I’ll collect Mark and Steph from the train [somehow!] then their Wedding Photographer is coming to chat to them, then at 4pm we have our Farewell Party in the Church Hall. Because all the PCs need to be packed up, I have been setting up some blogposts in advance. Once things are a little more settled, I shall post pictures of the party [if I remember to take them] and of the new location.
I wish you could all come and enjoy the party with us [Janet and her team always provide a fantastic spread] The great thing about blogging is that you can keep in touch wherever you are – so actually I do not have to say Farewell to blogfriends.
But I would like to say Hello - especially to those of you who have emailed me in recent days, explaining that you always read the blog, but don’t ever post comments – yet you wanted to send your love and support when you read about the burglary, and our move. That has really touched me, and I do so appreciate your kind words, whether in the public comments box, or the private email. God bless you all!
Enjoy the party, good luck for a smooth, trouble free move, and I hope Bob's part (well, his car part!) arrives and is fitted in time. Will keep you in my thoughts.

I hope you enjoy your party. I shall be praying for you that the move goes well and that the car situation is rectified quickly. Take care of yourselves xxx
ReplyDeleteVery best wishes for the move, and the beginning of your new life and work in Dorset. I'm sure that you will soon be telling us all about it.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your leaving party tonight. It will be no doubt an evening of very mixed emotions but above all it will be one of love, hope, friendship and fellowship.
Have a great party from a fellow 'midlander'. Hope your move goes well. Donna x

ReplyDeleteI don't very often comment on your blog, although I do read and enjoy it. I just want to send love and best wishes to you both for you move 'down South'!! You will have had a lovely, if not emotional time at your farewell party tonight, with memories that will last forever. Good luck for next week!! XX
