We're in... at last!

Wow! What a whirlwind week! This time last week the Pickfords Removals were hauling our belongings onto a VERY big lorry! I squealed at the size of it! You could have lived in the lorry it was that big.... and our belongings filled a third of it! I didn't realise how much "stuff" we had!

We stayed with our parents over the weekend and travelled up to our new home in Oxfordshire on Monday and spent three long days unpacking! We couldn't have done it without the help of the parents since I'm still in plaster and can't lift... only another 11 days to go until it comes off!

We've only got three boxes which haven't been unpacked yet, but everything else is in it's home! Phew! Can't wait to get back into a routine and start cooking and sewing again.

I've taken a few photos of our new neighbours...
   
Neighbours over the back fence - one donkey, two pigs and about 50 sheep!

And to the front of the house across the road...

A quirky road names!
I popped into Oxford this week and the flea market was on. I was very naughty and brought a few items... now I just need to find room for them! Also, Oxford Covered Market was a delight to find - lots of real butchers with game hanging in the windows, nice fish, fruit and veg and a cheese shop! Ideal! Now just to sniff out the farmers markets and farm shops!

A nice little stairs basket... £4.00...

Woods of England small cup and saucer set in a lovely spearmint green... thinking chocolate pots in the summer - set of 6 ... £8.00....

Delicious!
Hopefully when the sun shines this week, I'll get out and about to do some scenic piccies...also with Blenheim Palace and 2000 acres of land after the back garden, there's lots to explore!

Cheerio!
