ALOFT, IN THE LOFT, SITS CROFT; HE IS SOFT

Thanks Stevie Smith.

 

One of the things I did today was to bring some more things from Kennard's lock-up and store in the attic. Basically the only things left there now are paintings (quite a few), a couple of (very) large boxes of crockery, my golf trundler and a sack trolley - hardly worth paying $250 a month storage fees for. I'll get the rest over the next couple of weeks and cancel the rental.

Fortunately in this house we have a spacious and dry attic (loft). It has more headroom than the one we had up north and the floor linings and lighting are better.

It won't be as much of a hassle when The Old Girl says "I need that xxxx matey".

I'll have to begin selling artwork and crockery (full Spode dinner set) on Trade Me or at auction. I held off doing this until we were settled in Wellington as the opportunity and logistics of selling and shipping items from Whangarei was limited and expensive. It'll keep me busy over the coming winter months.
