This is the blog for Nick and Sheldon. This is our story of leaving England and moving to Tasmania in Australia. We have been in the UK for almost 10 years and moving to a place that neither of us have lived before. Watch this spot!

77 Graham - a home that will be missed by all . . .


77 Graham - oh the times we have had in this house.
Last night we invited the flatties who we have shared 77 Graham Road with over the years. We had a typical 77G style balcony BBQ in the glorious cocktail hour sun as it sets in the west over the German Hospital. The BBQ itself has done an amazing job; it is small but cooks up a storm. I will miss this £7.99 investment. All the flaties except one could come which was great. Our fabulousneighbor'ss bought their wonderful kids and we all had a lovely evening drinking, eating and watching Italy bring the world cup football back to Roma. Good on'em!

77 Graham will hold many wonderful memories for everyone who lived or visited. From the moment that I bought the property I knew it was going to be a friendly happy home. The house has GREAT vibes. Ireliefe that the memories that everyone takes away are good . .

The parties that went all night, the dinner parties, the long chats over tea in thekitchenn, the noise from the road, the music blaring from across the way, the cats crying, thesquirrelss climbing, the doors banging, the pathetic pot plants, the fake fireplace, the cold drafts, the squeaky floorboards, the 38 routemaster, Shahin and Eddie at Cost Cutter, 6 Feet Under, free cloths from Shel, the love, the pain, the laughing, the crying.

If you have any memories - add a comment on here so that we can all remember what fun we had!!

It all happened at 77 and now it is all memories. Cheers to 77 and the friends that sailed within her.
