Sexist packing

Hello. Back now, and straight into the myriad joys of flat-moving. One of the sixteen billion boxes into which our lives have been packed is labelled as follows:

Tool Kit
Teasmaid
Drill
Christmas Decorations
Jump Leads
Fairy Lights

I think anyone going by the evidence of that box alone would have to conclude that our flat is shared by Ernest Hemingway and Milly Molly Mandy.

And is that so very far from the truth?

    We have the joy of moving at some stage soon (getting re-housed because we're scum, isn't it); I suspect our packing will involve a sewing machine being put in with a circular saw and spanner set. The worrying thing? They're all MY items. (The other half's stuff mainly involves Xbox games and Doctor Who boxsets...)

    Good luck with your move!

    Good luck with your moving. It is pretty tough, but you seem to be doing it just right. Really, labeling the packed up boxes is the best. It is more helpful than it might seem.

    Regards, Jay.
