The company I worked for closed down, we shut the shutters down, handed the keys back to the landlord and went to the pub on Friday.
It was a long slog but we managed to find good homes for almost everything out of the office and warehouse. A chance comment to a friend revealed that his brother was setting up a new business so the last of our office furniture and warehouse equipment went off to a new home in a couple of vans on Thursday afternoon.
Anything that couldn't be reused (and there wasn't much of that) went off to the appropriate experts for recycling.
Hardly anything went into the skip and much of what did disappeared overnight. An old motor engine appeared in the skip one morning but had disappeared again by lunchtime
So now my big plan is to spend lots of time in the garden - only it's pouring and has been all day
So, the list of jobs for the next few weeks are:
Clean the conservatory inside and out and put some trellis up for next year's cucumbers, tomatoes, melons etc.
Move the raspberries that have taken over the fruit cage.
Clear an area of garden and turn it into a woodland garden.
Turn the "summerhouse" (which used to be my office years ago when I was self-employed) into a proper potting shed so that I can use the carport as a greenhouse.
Take some pics to prove I've done it (and to explain my previous comment).
So if anybody wants to nag me then please feel free. So far my first day of freedom has been spent sat on the sofa with UK TV gardens, catching up with three days' of missed Ssish! I need someone to crack the whip here.
Cheers
Zoe
