We are just about sorted now. Best thing we ever did, much smaller and more cosy than our last house and less work in the garden too.
I hope you settle as well as we have.

I wasn't sure until the day before I moved that it would be able to go ahead, because of trouble getting the old house on to the Land Registry, but contracts were exchanged the day before, and I was able to go ahead. I'd been packed up and ready to go for weeks, and was constantly unpacking and re-packing things.

Well it's day 9 now and wet and windy outside so I've decided to not take a carload over today but try to sort out some of the chaos here. There are things strewn everywhere so that I can see what is left to sort/transport. Actually I now realise there is not that much left, but it's amazing how chaotic even a small amount of stuff can make the place.
Yesterday I was sorting out my curtains in the new house, and am really pleased that I have enough old ones that I like to do all the windows. Some will need shortening, and I'll have to lower two curtain rails to accommodate some that are a tiny bit too short, but at least i don't have to look for new curtains.

Our house - a 3-bed with mature garden, was on for £215,000 and we got offered £213,000 which we accepted.
We are half a mile from this 2-bed and it's also ex-council like ours so we are checking it out and if we think it is worth it we are offering £210,000 tops.
Not best pleased looking at this one - my wife's fallen for this one.
More later. stevmk2
