Clean me up Scotty

We had a few funny moments with the packing - aside from the kitchen roll being packed! We had taken off our jackets and thrown then over the back of the sofa without really thinking about it. They were packed and had to be retrieved by Carlos. It was the same with Stephen's shoes. They had just left for the first night and we were getting ready to leave for the hotel when we discovered that Stephen's shoes were missing. D'OH! Thankfully we found the "living room" box that had shoes marked on it pretty easily, otherwise we were going to have to buy him some more whilst the others sailed across the ocean!!

We've spent the past two days in a flurry of activity - Stephen has been running around returning the comcast equipment and the car and I've been doing "Scottish Calvinist Cleaning" in preparation for the final walk through on Monday. We figured it wouldn't take too long once the place was empty...it took longer than expected (it was a big house!) and was flipping hard work - especially as I was doing detail cleaning. The place is gleaming! Certainly cleaner than when we moved in. Much elbow grease was expended. Kim and Aggie would be proud!
