The first day of the rest of our lives...

OK, it's terrible cliché, I know, and I would never usually use it without a heavy dose of irony and the liberal use of inverted commas, but it really does seem to fit the bill.

It is difficult to say when you take the first step on a journey, but for all sorts of reasons, this feels like the start. As of today we signed a contract on temporary rental home, so, as of today we own a house, 2000m2 of land and have rented a house to live in while our new home is being built.  Hopefully the final formalities of the sale of our current house will be completed soon and, equally hopefully, we will start to build a new house soon after that, but who knows when it will all finish.

However, for me the thing that really brought it all home was taking down the pictures and moving them all to the new hose.  So I sit here with bare white walls waiting for the next step.  As they almost certainly don't say around these parts, watch this space
