A look back to the end of the last chapter...Orme Road
On Thursday morning last week, March 10th, we left the comfort of Pete and Jean's home and drove to Bangor to collect the cats.
We were not there long.
The house was empty and no longer a home. It had become a "property" once again.
I took a few pictures.
In the main living room - which is now destined to be 2 rooms for students.
Ashley cleans up the cats' dishes.
A last look at Ecky's bedroom.
Those walls were never very visible - so many shelves of books, toys and ornaments.
Look! Not a very cheerful morning!
View from Ashley's study.
A poignant moment.
Maybe enlarged this shows more clearly the lines on the door frame which mark Ecky's growth.
The house is sold - not a Monk home any more.
Time to go.

Bye bye Bangor sea gulls.
No, Jacob! There will be no more exploring of the tiny back yard and beyond.

Soon the cats will have a larger garden and trees and shrubs to explore.
A poignant moment.

She is growing so tall. The last months have been a true growth spurt time.
The house is sold - not a Monk home any more.
Time to go.
The chapter is over.
In a few more hours the next chapter will begin.
