How much?

Bike has arrived in the country. I haven’t got it yet, but at least it’s here somewhere. Now the shippers want $3000. It gets more every time I talk to someone about it.

That’s on top of all the money I’ve already paid to get my other belongings here. $3000 is what I was quoted as being the total for both. It’s almost doubled.

Now the bureaucracy starts.

Don’t worry if you are just shipping over to the UK for a trip, it’s not as bad as it will be for me, I’m importing to re-register here.

So money out and no more coming in.

I was offered a job two weeks ago. I accepted. Now I’ve heard nothing about starting. I get no response to emails. No idea what’s happening there, but in the meantime I haemorrhage money.

It’s about the time I’d have been coming back to renew my visa, so that’s one lot of paperwork I’ll be avoiding. I guess I’ll just have to console myself with whatever divorce papers Karen has decided I should receive. Bless!

I hope I can afford to insure and run the bike when I finally get it!!!!
