And today it was the turn of my plant pots, which are the first things to actually be moved out and taken to be stored. I was originally going to take them straight to the land in Fleurac and leave them there but I then thought that there could be two problems with that. Firstly, it’s obvious that they could easily be stolen from there, although theft and crime in general doesn’t seem to be a major problem here.<\/p>\n

Secondly, and more importantly really, if I drop them onto the land before it has been ‘terrassed’ ie cleared and levelled for the caravan (and the house) and an access onto it created, they will be in the way wherever they are. They would therefore have to be shifted around and would probably end up getting damaged, which would be a great shame as almost all of them were brought all the way from England when I moved here.<\/p>\n

So I decided to ask for help and my good friend Victor came to the rescue once again and said that I can store them at his and Madeleine’s place until I can move them in a few weeks time. So with that I loaded them all into my large trailer with old plastic tarpaulins wedged between them so they wouldn’t get damaged and took them there. I didn’t take any shots while they were in the trailer but here they are all unloaded and safely stored in Victor and Madeleine’s garden<\/p>\n

This wasn’t the only thing that I did today, though. First thing this morning I went over to Labattut (my land) and replaced the name and address on my new letterbox with an all-plastic one that I made using my Brother label machine. With all the rain we’ve had I knew that the original paper one that I’d printed off on my computer would have run and be almost illegible and indeed, so it was.<\/p>\n

I need to have my name and address clearly visible because it’ll soon by my principal address and I’m also now beginning to order stuff to be delivered there. A case in point is a 13m\u00b2 metal garden store that I’ll be erecting next to my caravan at Labattut. I’ll be able to store the main tools and equipment in it that I’ll need to be able to ‘do things’ there and I’ll probably also run a temporary power cable into it. And who knows, I might even be able to put a washing machine in there which could be a huge help.<\/p>\n

But maybe I needn’t have worried too much about my new address not being known, because when I opened the mailbox this morning, what did I find inside? A postcard from Victor and Madeleine who are coming to the end of a get-away in their camping car, that’s what, with a greeting headed ‘Postbox Test’. So I now know that at least the Fleurac postman knows where to find me \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
