It turns out the process of moving was a lot more involved than I might have thought.
My plan was move the day the house settled (Friday) finishing off the day after (Saturday) and then unpacking next day (Sunday) before starting the week off fresh and new and able to get moving.
The first part when to plan – we moved out over the two days, in the pouring rain I might add. It was not a pleasant experience. The final inspection and the last of my renting days was wound up with no fuss. After all I spent quite a considerable amount of time making sure that the property was clean and tidy.
The moving in part was a lot more difficult.
Basically we took what was in a four bedroom plus office house and moved it into a three bedroom house. The poor wee house is literally bursting at the seams. Dealing with it means some fairly careful use of space.
We’ve put up shelves and redone wardrobes and built desks and so on. I say we, but I mean my partner.
I went to work and came home and lamented that my home was such a mess.
And this is all before we undertake massive upgrades of the gardens. Holy crap!
Anyway, the unpacking is three quarters complete. I at least have some living space now.
No internet yet though, which could be a bit of an issue.
