No sightings of Wild Geese.

Ms K's partner met us at the front door with an apology. "I fear I may have brought you on a wild goose chase" he said, and then proceeded to show us the stairlift that had been installed yesterday, and which he feared would make moving the various items of furniture from the back bedroom to the front difficult as it narrowed the landing and staircase.

Emma and I, being experienced furniture shifters(...), and not to be deterred in our mission, took a look at the overall situation and confidently pronounced it was all doable. We started with the bed/mattress, which once separated proved remarkably easy to shift and we soon had that tucked up against the wall in the front room.

A heavy looking drawer unit was next and whilst this required a bit more grunt to lift it up and over the various obstacles, we soon had that done - leaving just a rather large (empty) wardrobe to bring downstairs - fortunately this was light enough to move around, and we left it outside the front door for collection as instructed.

Mr P was delighted (surprised?) with our efforts and we wished him well with the imminent return of Ms K.
