So we're moving to
Picton!
Starting in a few weeks we'll have vacated our little Penshurst house which has been a great first home, and moved all our belongings to a strange new rural place. We're calling this an experiment because we like to have ways back out of unfamiliar places, so we're
renting a house down there and going to put our Penshurst house up for rent too. This way if we change our minds after a little while (probably six months to match the lease durations), we can move back and say "experiment completed, conclusion negative".
However at this point we're all super-excited and think that this is the place for us for a good while yet. More posts on the reasoning and the actual house we've chosen coming soon. As well as a house-warming of course!
For now it's crazy packing time, plus organising everything for two houses at the same time, oh and of course Liz is going back to work shortly and Phoebe still challenges us with her on-again, off-again sleeping and eating habits.
We must be crazy, but sometimes in life you have to be a bit daring and hope it pays off.
