The Move...

I have just shelled out £460 reservation fee to hold the new flat and take it off the market while then paper work is filled out, stamped and filed.

The money will go toward the deposit and/or first month's rent, so it's not additional expenditure, but I still feel a little light headed...

Top stuff.

Be sure to holler if you need sherpas.

Most kind: I may well do so, and then there will be beer afterwards!

Is the flat still in Whetstone? Remember, we do have those empty cardboard boxes for you. And no, having helped drag the 94-kilo widescreen TV up the stairs, I don't think my back will stand the reverse journey, let alone up the stairs of the new flat.....

Aye - tis about 250 yards up the High Road on the opposite side. Nice place.

You will, as always, be quite welcome to visit when we are sorted.

So you'll be able to move a lot of your stuff in small quick journeys a little at a time, and will only need friends and transport for the bulky items. Ideal. Wish I could be there to lend a hand.

I'll see what I can do, or more likely, remember to do.

Furtle is organising a company with the marvellous name Movers Not Shakers to provide us with a van and a couple of blokes with muscles in their spit to help with the heavy stuff (of which the single heaviest piece is our atommik telly).
