A Moving Experience

The other day in an idle moment, --- yes, I do get them occasionally! ---, I was thinking about the number of times that I have moved home over the years, which is sufficient to make me somewhat of an expert in handling furniture and getting it in and out of awkward spaces!

Here's a brief summary of the moves that I remember:

1964 : Left home to move to Bath, Avon.

1966 : Moved to Boscombe, Hants.

1967 : I was taken ill and had to move to Corsham for a while.

1968 : Moved to Swindon with my job, lived at three different places in the two and a half years that I was there.

1970 : Got married and moved to a flat in Bristol.

1972 : Bought our first house at Deerswood, Bristol.

1972 : Moved to Rhodesia.

1972 to 1984 : Moved over the period many times, living in 4 flats, and 4 houses.

1984 : Returned to the UK and Wootton Bassett, Wiltshire.

1985 : Moved to Newton Abbott, Devon.

1987 : Moved to Newtown, Powys, Mid Wales. I lived in two different homes during the time that I was there.

1995 : Moved to Merthyr Cynog, Wales. Also lived through the college term-time at Aberystwyth.

1998 : Moved to Runcorn, living in the church manse.

2005 : Moved to my current address.

Where to next? Who knows!!!
