“If I’ve been here a long time, I think: I must go to London and speak to someone or see a bus.”
– Julian Clary
As a result of our recent announcement (to recapitulate: LONDON!), and as you have probably rightly assumed, we are going to be busy for the next few months. Saving money, getting visas, selling most of what we own, packing up what’s left – horrifyingly, delightfully busy. Travel junkie and pro that I am, I’m already straining at the lead to get started.
And so, we’re going to be having a theme here at Small Dog Inc. for the next 3 – 4 months: upping sticks. We’ll be talking paperwork, packing, selling stuff, and about adventures abroad (past and future).
As you may recall, I’ve rather extensive experience in the matters of cross continental hops, but why shouldn’t you get to participate in the fun? Vicariously, I mean, I would never ask it of you to haul furniture and sort kitchen utensils! I have better uses for such lovely minions as yourselves than manual labor. In fact, here’s an assignment, email me your travel tips and misadventures starting now, everyone’s invited to this blog party and I want to feature you and your good ideas and stories.
So sit back and enjoy the fun, my darlings! I’m going to be asking your opinions on many things so do participate. I will even try and get some of my mates to do guest posts about moving and their adventures abroad. And when the boxes tumble and crush me, all of the appliances break last minute as we are trying to sell them, the car needs last minute repairs that wipe out our savings, and the locusts eat all our crops, you will be the first to know.
Congrats! How delightfully exciting!!!!
London!!!!! So envious. I suggest taking as little as possible and picking up what you can when there…surely London has a craisglist equivalent?
