Accommodation Decisions

 Saturday, 09 March, 2024

We've settled into the little bungalow we have hired for a few days whilst we find somewhere slightly longer term to hang out whilst the landlord does whatever landlords do to get their houses fit for human (and cat) habitation at times like this. Who knows what the next few weeks will bring,.. "We've had an idea of how to make the best of things whilst away from our home, but we'll need to see if our son agrees when he comes back from his overnight stay with friends today. I'm hoping he agrees, though.

Anyway, it is certainly a time to count our blessings, so I will start with gratitude for the fact that we live in such a beautiful part of the world. As a photographer, the joy and comfort I receive from the landscape are immense, so I thought I'd close this update with some of the locations where we have been making our decisions these past couple of days. I am in no way a religious person, but despite everything that has happened lately, our family is still blessed.

This is the village where I grew up. My Mum's house has poor internet, so we parked up here to search for temporary accommodation where we can recuperate from life:





We have moved to this side of the bay for the next few days. Our usual home is on the other side of this bay (see the land to the left of the pic in the background.

Stayed at my mum's on the day of the fire. Spent yesterday staying there looking after our surviving furbaby, Fudge, between viewing what is left of the house with our landlord, taking The Soosh to the vet to arrange her cremation, sorted out my meds (which may have been ruined by the electricity being switched off as they need to be kept refrigerated at all times) (the health team are getting to me on that on Monday), visiting my doctor as I needed antibiotics for my illness, and finally arranging where we are going to stay for the next few days whilst we take stock and move on. We are now a little off-grid for a few days whilst we take stock of how we move on from here and lick our wounds. Fudj looks like she has overcome her anxiety as she settled nicely in the Airbnb last night.

Lost The Soosh to a house fire tonight. Heartbroken and homeless.
