Trying for the first time to book something on Airbnb. It is a nightmare. They want an upload of my passport photo page. But that is not enough. They then want verification with access to our email account. They weren't satisfied with that - some rubbish about there not being enough activity, which is total crap. They wanted Facebook or LinkedIn details. I am not on either.

We need to move money from an account in the Isle of Man to my bank in England to buy our new car. It is a joint account in the Isle of Man so we sent a letter signed by both. A week has passed and no money has been transferred. I telephoned them this morning and guess what - it is Tynwald Day in the Isle of Man, a bank holiday.

Our furniture will be delivered to our new home on 1st August. Removal companies use large vehicles. We have requested the local council put cones on the road in front of our house on the day so people cannot park there and the removal van can unload. There has just been an email from the council saying they will not so this. So do they want the road entirely blocked by the removal van?

Baz - keep copies of your message to them, and the council's response and have them ready when the coppers show up on the day. wishing you even more strength and patience than you have shown so far in the labyrinth of this move!

You should write a guide for expats about how to return to Uk, Baz! your experience would be so helpful for others!
my moan: I need choc! I did not go for a walk, it is cold and misserable, still 5+ hs work ahead, people are stupid, need a nap, need vacations, our government is the idiotest idiot ever in history! my moan specifics: the gov will investigate those who tweet against them! so much for deMOCKracy...

Moaning at myself. I drove to Gourdon today (22 minutes away) and then discovered I had forgotten to bring the loyalty cheque from the supermarket and the doctor's prescription. I am definitely not firing on all cylinders this morning.

I can't nail up the fence In part, I have the wrong nails. In other part, I'm a weakling. In further part, I can't figure out how having the right nails will make me able to do this. I wish I had a nailgun.

No idea, might get the proper nails and try again first. I settled for digging up 5 massive escapee bamboo roots (2 at 4ft and 2 and 3ft.. I've told the bamboo that's its last chance, if it tries escaping its box again then the whole lot is going. I think it laughed at me.
