Backstory 1

I kind of wish I'd started keeping this blog back in November before we moved and documented the whole story but to be honest those last few months of 2014 were pretty tear filled and raged and would have made no sense! 

I was very very pregnant and was moving from my beloved Bristol to the very unknown pontypool...so many unknowns made it pretty stress filled.

We moved here on December 22nd a day before the solicitors and everything else besides tesco were due to shut for Christmas! Luckily we had help from a dream team of friends and family so the actual move itself went really well very well for me as being preggo I didnt have to lift a single box! (Every cloud and that...)

Muka shutting the van on the last load!

That first week is a bit of a blur really.. We had a lovely Christmas considering, spent Christmas Day breakfast at my brothers and we hosted Boxing Day breakfast we had our first (of many)'oh shit!' Moment when wilco pressed the panic button alarm we had just found in the bedroom this resulted in Muka wearing just his pants stood on a stool above my fathers head (hilarious image for me.. Not so cool for my dad or Muka) trying to find the right wore to rip out of the right alarm box... We had no code for either alarm. 3 wires severed later we had no alarm system and a severe ringing in our ears.

This also meant my first meeting of my new neighbour involved  a very egg like me wearing just a long vest sans underwater...great.
