Departure from Cornwall

We have left work, said some goodbyes and kind of packed our stuff. Well if packing involves shoving everything we own into several bags to repack at lucy's grandparents at the weekend?! We have a chilled out weekend to tie up loose ends and gorge on plenty of food (rick is fearing only rice for the next 3 months!). The nerves are starting to kick in! eek!
