Housemovers of the World, United in Woe
A couple of weeks ago, I happened to meet a couple of old home enthusiast. One of them owned four or five old homes, one of which he'd moved. The house in question was his grandparents' old home. His thoughts on home moving?
"Unless it was a really, really special house, I wouldn't do it again. It's just a major pain."
He actually moved this house quite a bit further than we had moved the Devil Queen. As such, they had to fully dismantle the house, move it, and then reassemble the whole thing. That has to be a special kind of hell.

Wow, what an amazing blog and what an adventage you have had! I would love to move my parents old house but this being the UK its not possible. My old house is a victorian terrace house made of London bricks so it can't be moved. I hope you don't sell up but can understand if you do!
