We had to empty our family home in 3 weeks. awful awful awful. They did live there very happily for a year and then moved back to england. But i remember standing in the empty house with my brother, we hugged each other tight in the kitchen and tears fell from the face, it was never going to be the same again and it wasn't. Times move on though, they enjoyed spain so much and dad died shortly afterwards having lived his dream of living abroad.LifeBehindTheCoach.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02694552259219212377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4304861315452931366.post-42741538158956596382008-10-29T14:30:00.000-04:002008-10-29T14:30:00.000-04:00I am itching to move SO FREAKIN BAD, but I know I'...I am itching to move SO FREAKIN BAD, but I know I'll feel the same way once it happens.
