Change is in the Air

There seems to be some changes in the air since we emerged from lockdown.

At work, my job share fellow Deputy Manager resigned during lockdown and didn't return to the shop, as he is selling his house and moving out of London shortly. It's an exciting new phase in his life, so I'm happy for him, in spite of the fact that it was a bit of a surprise, to say the least. Interviews for his replacement will be some time in August, the outcome of which will be interesting.

At home, change is on the horizon too, our next door neighbours, who we've lived next door to since we moved here 12 or 13 years ago, are also moving on to pastures new in London, mainly to accommodate more home working I believe. It will probably affect our daughter the most, as she has grown up next door to and gone to school with one of their daughters and although they have different friendship groups, they've always got on well.

It's given me slightly itchy feet, but I'm trying to resist them.

Yesterday, there were lots of comings and goings next door with potential buyers viewing the property. It will be interesting to see further down the line who our new neighbours will be.

Are any changes happening around you at the moment?

  1. Things here are much the same, Portchester is a village, but it’s on the edge of Portsmouth and therefore has a busy feel to it. In the past few years more young families have moved in our area and loads of bungalows are now converted into houses. I love the feel of where we live, our street is very settled at our end, most homes only change when someone dies, and we are all younger OAP’s.

  2. Right now things are pretty much the same. We are looking at finding some property near a lake and moving a modular home onto it. Mind you it will be awhile before we sell this place as prices are at an all time low.

    God bless.
