Snobby Estate Agents and flats

Phew we have had a busy busy week. Thankfully the weekend has been quieter and I am feeling more on top of life again!
Chloe and Ed have found a lovely duplex in Kent overlooking the river. It is in a block of flats which is highly sort after so she is very glad to have found one available. It is also part furnished which is an added bonus and has all the white goods. She did encounter some very snobby attitudes from estate agents who assumed she was a student and even told her that one of the flats wasn't suitable for her.  It was very interesting to see the change in attitude once they found out she was a Dr and her partner was a naval architect! Suddenly nothing was too much trouble and everything was suitable! Today she and Ed are sorting the camping stuff and packing ready for their week in the Lakes.  They go on Wednesday and we follow next Sunday. We overlap by 4 days.

So this week is a quieter week of packing - for Chloe and Ed for Lakes and then France, for us to Lakes and we also begin to sort Chloe's stuff for moving. I will be doing some cooking to leave for Ben to keep him going. I am really looking forward to being in the Lakes again, for my second holiday since stopping dialysis. Each time we go away it is amazing as I am so aware of how different my life could have been.
