Ah, me! For our Transfer of Residence form, we have to inventory all that we want to bring into our new country - how much crockery, cutlery, toiletries, stationery, computers, tools, chairs, rugs etc to show we're taking only enough for a household, and are not importing things to sell. Ugh, what a job - it obviously forces us to make decisions, sort and evaluate quicker, but do I really need to count how many knives, forks, spoons and mugs I have? Should I multiply each fork by 4, and cake forks by 3 since they have a different number of tines? Okay, so I'm being facetious, but really! I guess I should simply say, 2 x 12 place settings or some such.
How many screws, bolts, pictures, or towels? Needles, nuts and nails? How many pens and pencils? Come on! These are parts of the re-locating process one doesn't anticipate - it's tedious and time-consuming.
We've scheduled the container company to come and collect our house contents during the week of April 20, so we're working furiously towards that goal.
