The Move From Glasgow - Sunday October 29th 2023

On Monday took Madeline to a new nursery with James. The one she is in is closing which doesn't make them feel so bad about moving her to a new one in Reading. On Tuesday took Owen for a walk and spotted the playground was also closed.

Wednesday was a big day. The move to Reading. M, Amy, Madeline and Owen by  train, me and James driving. The train they were due to get was cancelled along with seat reservations but they managed to upgrade to Standard Premium. More trouble later and moved on to a train with no seats so upgraded to first class. Removal people turned up at 8am and it all went relatively smoothly. 

We left at 4pm and got back just after midnight. On Thursday the removal men turned up at 8 30 am to put the stuff in Lok n Store. Took Madeline to the swings on Friday.

They went to Josh and Vic's in the afternoon. In the evening I met up with Chris Gavin to see The Dead South at The  Roundhouse. I'd been looking forward to it as they were recommended by Ian and Roy but ended up being disappointed with the sound. Too much bass, muddy vocals and quite often couldn't hear the other instruments. Good night though. SET came over on Saturday so we had all 3 generations together for the first time.

Had a chicken roast dinner and leftover pie on Sunday. Me and M took Madeline to softplay at Rivermead. It was very busy and she coped really well.
