Cleaning out my cupboard - 6 days until our first move

Big day today. Mrs Smith and I went through our clothes and stuff and dropped them off to St Vinnies. One suitcase full and another 2 bags, some books, a whole bunch of wedding magazines and a filing cabinet. Quite cleansing really. Then friends came over and I cooked scrambled eggs, they took some books and my beloved poker table - will be dropping in monthly to their place to use it. Ross, the recipient was very willing but I am not sure if Deb his wife was as keen to be hosting monthly poker nights for the boys :).

Next we went to Howards Storage World and got vacumn packs for our bedding and winter clothes - it is all coming together. Mrs Smith's sister came and took a DVD player, a VHS player and an old shelf stereo so there is not much left to sell on eBay. I have an old LG Flatron TV I need to sell but will get to that.

Finally, my parents arrived today from Victoria. They have arrived all gung-ho to pack up our house. They are staying until Friday. It will be great to have them here, not only for their help but also so we can drink all our good wine before it goes into storage!

Getting excited now!
