The Magyar Horde Moves Again

They say the Magyars were originally a nomadic race wandering through the great Siberian Step, perhaps it’s a genetic disposition that has once again led us to move house for the fifth time in 10 years. Not far just down the road, nice location, the only step we are interested in is the one on the property ladder.

Unfortunately unlike the Magyars who were a bunch of barbarian scoundrels engaged in general plunder and horse thieving we find that the removals people play that part quite well, while we play the role of hapless victims.

We’d have done better if they’d have thrown the entire house contents into a skip transported it across to the new house tipped the whole lot into the front garden and we’d have picked through it all at the other end at out leisure, instead we look like the municipal rubbish tip stuffed into a bay fronted 3 up 4 down, and for all this pleasure you pay £700 for a two mile round trip while 4 gorillas play havoc with your life!

Wonder where we’ll move next?
