And he's gone!

Rob has flown out to Fort Worth today for two and a half weeks. Tomorrow he meets our new landlord and landlady and will receive the keys to our rental house. They are going to show how him around the house and how things work, especially the things we're not used to, like the air-conditioning and sprinkler systems. In Texas, house foundations must be watered regularly to stop them drying out and causing subsidence, this is not a problem we've ever had living in a place called Marshfield! The rental furniture will also be delivered tomorrow and Rob will take up residence in the house, and start work on Wednesday. He's got some other tasks to complete before he comes back to Wales; buying a washing machine and tumble dryer, and trying to get at least one car organised.
