In between all this beaching and cafe visiting, flood life goes on. We have recently been handed over to the Reinstatement company and, fortunately, seem to have an excellent lady in the office there, who has really got things moving in the last few days. We should ideally have a meeting with the various involved parties, but as we managed a comprehensive review before we went they now have authorisation to get plastering - however see her note below
Hope we can get get in to our own house on our return with Rae (thanks again for offering us a lift - remember it's only Oxenholme and not Manchester Airport!!) - we will need to pick up winter woollies and wet gear!The only thing to inform you of is once the works start, the property will officially be a building site.You are welcome to have access to the property, but only when accompanied by a member of staff due to the health and safety restrictions imposed on the site. This means that there is a key safe installed to limit any unauthorised access.
ON THE MOVE
We have calculated we will have moved house 26 times since we went away to Spain in November until we get back to our own (brand new - hurray!) bed at Raven Hill - not accounting for a few additions, if we have to find somewhere over Easter:
- Friends in Manchester
- 2 hotels in Spain
- 1 night Raven Hill
- 1 week Yew Tree Cottage
- 5 weeks Rose Cottage (x 3 moves)
- 2 weeks Jen and Rich and 1 weekend March (x 2)
- Rob and Lin (x2)
- Qatar Airways (x 2)
- Niki's in Perth (x 3)
- Niki's in Dunsborough (x 2)
- Augusta hotel
- 5 Airbnbs
- Rottnest
Just as well we have our camping routines to fall back on - mostly all these places are warm, comfortable and easy to self cater or be catered for - thanks again to all those who have put us up and put up with us -much appreciated.
