MOVING HOUSE

With spring around the corner, many of us will be considering putting our house on the market. Maybe you have elderly parents who are ready to downsize. Spring is traditionally a time when the property market really starts moving again.

It’s very exciting when you finally sell your house and the next adventure can begin; however, it can be very daunting too when you realise how much needs to be done and in a fairly short time period. Moving house is apparently one of the most stressful life events - but we can help!

Blinded by the Light
 

From writer/director/producer Gurinder Chadha (“Bend It Like Beckham”) comes the inspirational drama “Blinded by the Light,” set to the music and lyrics of Bruce Springsteen’s timeless songs.“Blinded by the Light” tells the story of Javed (Viveik Kalra) a British teen of Pakistani descent, growing up in the town of Luton, England, in 1987. Amidst the racial and economic turmoil of the times, he writes poetry as a means to escape the intolerance of his hometown and the inflexibility of his traditional father. But when a classmate introduces him to the music of “The Boss,” Javed sees parallels to his working-class life in Springsteen’s powerful lyrics. As Javed discovers a cathartic outlet for his own pent-up dreams, he also begins to find the courage to express himself in his own unique voice.
