All systems go

Phew what a whirlwind 24 hours! We are now all set for completion on the 21st August. Hopefully we will have exchange completed by Friday so at that point, we will be able to sit back and relax in terms of the house sale being finalised.

In the mean time I am on the phone again trying to finalise removals. There are now 2 of the 4 companies who quoted, still left in the running and I am just waiting for a price adjustment to come through to be able to close the deal.

With visitors coming over on Sunday, that just leaves Saturday to tax the car, get the pre-booked haircuts for me and Alex, then sort out clearing out the garden, shed and ornaments. You know the sort of thing - composter, water butt, bird bath, feeders, kennel, hutch, shed, BBQ. I think I might need a van and a skip :)

At some point I also need to take down the weather station!

I'm still waiting for 2 quotes to come through for the dogs to get shipped over and we need to finalise flights and baggage allowance, because we need to pack that before the moves come in on Tuesday.

On top of all that, tonight I have the loft to clear and the filing cabinet full of old paperwork to go through. Should be done by midnight ;)
