That's funny.

But you see, what's meant to be is meant to be.

Look, I eventually decided anyway, long story short, to get somewhere to the end.

I did move into our retirement plan and I did finish it.

And I loved my new house because I do house design and it was the first time I had a brand new house and I had a beautiful glass wall, this, that and the other.

Wow.

But then I discovered the place was miles too big and I was rattling around in it.

So something told me to say it to my son that would I not build a smaller house on the farm?

that Ned had done and that and himself and his wife agreed and I was building it for about three years and I had to fight hard to get it because if you have a house already planners aren't sympathetic but I was lucky enough to get it so then I said I would sell the other house sad but the good was gone out of it because we weren't able to share it so that house was up for sale for a few months and

Anyway, one morning I got a phone call to say that they had a good offer and I just drove up to the house and the sign was down.

And I took a photograph and I said, your dad knew the house was sold before I did because he took down the sign.

And sure enough, the sale went through and it'll be finalised next Tuesday.

But why did that sign fall?

Now, you could say a hundred reasons, but it was up the night before.

It's like...

It's like deja vu.

You nearly feel, I've been here before, you know.

But it obviously brings you a deep sense of comfort.

Now it does.

And it's like I said to Ed after about eight years, it was eight years, we went away.
