Having recently moved to Australia (again) we moved from a 3 bedroom house into a rental house with 4 bedrooms a study and 3 living rooms and a dining room. As you can imagine we are living in a cavern at the moment with furniture randomly scattered to create the impression that we are living here.
My wife is incredibly house proud so we needed to get a dining room suite as soon as possible. She has discovered the wonders of eBay and won her first purchase for $150.00. So now the next issue how do you get a dining room suite to your house when you are on a budget. Hey thats what mates are for. One of my mates has a Ford Transit and he loaned it to me so that I could go and pick up the dining room suite.
Things always seem to work out for me in this way: when I arrived there, the only person there was the lady that we had bought the dining room suite from. I was on my own as my wife was at home looking after the kids. So I had to enlist her help to get the Ford Transit loaded up. Let me tell you I have a desk job and moving furniture is a job I will leave to the professionals in future as by the time I had loaded the dining room suite in the van I was "finished".
Luckily the trip back was uneventful but now the real hard work would need to start - the refurbishment of the dining room suite, but that is a story for another day.
