Got there!
« on: December 31, 2010, 02:29:24 PM »
Got to our new house in one piece. 2000km in 2 days (1500km first day, 500km second day). Yorkie made it without problem, with heavy trailer in tow, on snow and ice all the way to Paris, drizzle and snow the rest of the way.

Here's the house (center) seen from the garden (a field, really), only neighbours on left within a km, and church:

(click on picture for a larger version)

The nearest town (10,000 people) is 13km away. It feels weird coming from Aberdeen.

Yorkie in its new surroundings:


It needs a good wash to get rid of 2000km of road salt.

Anyhoo, best wishes for the new year and all the best wi the new place.....

Haha! We discovered dark nights when we moved here: street lights are switched off in the middle of the night and there is no other source of light around us. It was weird.
