Moving once more next Wednesday. Back into a place of my own. I grew up in a house at 221 Bethesda Church Road. Then I lived for years at 221 Candler Street. By an odd twist of coincidence, this new apartment is also a 221. I am glad about being back in a 221 of my own.
I've just finished packing the suitcase with my stuff !
Before I leave for Scandinavia, I'm already tired because of packing.

CEA were employed to pack and lash 77 units of Mud Skips, Cargo Baskets and Gas Racks into 14, 40ft HC containers, the cargo received was too wide to fit in to the containers in the conventional way and would have to be turned on its side. CEA would ready the containers for load out and transport them to port where the cargo would be shipped to Nigeria to be used in the offshore Oil & Gas sector.
PROCEDURE
Two wooden beams were placed on the floor in each of the containers, the cargo, on its side would be placed on these to ensure no damage occurred to the panels during loading, transportation and unloading. Lifting slings that would be used upon arrival in Nigeria were attached to each piece of cargo before packing.
A CEA reach stacker lifted each of the containers and placed them on to their sides upon wooden blocks. CEA fabricated specialised roller units to facilitate the loading, two units were placed underneath the front section to support the cargo while being loaded by forklift from the rear.
Mantiou 3.5 t forklift’s and 5 t pallet trucks loaded the cargo into the containers, both fork lifts and pallet trucks were covered with protective materials to prevent any damage to the cargo.
After all Mud Skips, Cargo Baskets and Gas Racks were loaded the CEA team lashed and secured them in place. Wooden chocks and stoppers were installed to further ensure no movement while transportation and shipping.
All necessary supporting documents were provided inside each container. A third party inspection team checked all loaded cargo and sealed the containers with the appropriate shipping tags. The containers were loaded on to flatbed trailers and transported to port to await shipping.

11 pairs of packs are in line - each pack in the pair weighs about the same pounds to keep the horse balanced. The horse is led to the pair that its packing, and a packer on each side lifts a pack that has a rope loop at the top. The rope is looped around the 'horns' of the saddle (back and front) and the pack hangs on the sides of the horse. Another item is usually thrown on top of the packs, and a canvas covers the top and a rope ties down everything.

So here's my Quirky Turkey for the week:
When I am packing for a trip I always MUST make the bed and fold all the laundry before I begin packing. Unmade beds and unfolded laundry don't normally bother me, obvs, but they drive me bonkers when I'm packing. So, it always takes me a crazy long time to pack because I end up doing a bunch of chores first.
