Wasting time

We had a visit from good friends today whom we last saw when they visited us in France.
They were on their way north, to Edinburgh, to remove their daughter's property from her place at uni. This reminded me of all the times that I had to do it for my kids many moons ago.
What an absolute waste of time, money and energy. My son in particular had to move his possessions in and out at the beginning and end of every term. I used to spit blood because he carried everything including the kitchen sink and over the futility of it all. I think they made them empty their rooms because they could use them for conferences out of term time.
The distance between where you could park the car and his accommodation was always an issue and James was the expert at doing very little of the actual shifting. Thank goodness it wasn't too far away from where we lived so that we didn't have several hours travelling as well.
For all you budding entrepreneurs out there I think that there's a business opportunity, shifting or shifting and storing.
