Saturday was the big move day. I have spent the last few weeks buying and attempting to sort out everything I need. Unfortunately my letting agency is the most incompetent I have ever know. So this has not been easy.
Thankfully Kerry and Craig offered their services in helping me move and brought the van and mini (which fits a surprisingly large enough in it). Though I think even they were surprised. I have had to buy practically everything.

Stuffing things in everywhere. |
We loaded up 3 vehicles and hit the motorway. I led the way, until we got lost anyway. (I blame dad!) They all moaned how slow I was going too slow at times. But I only have a little car and it does not like going fast up hill with a load. But we got there.
And then had to wait. About 2 hours. Because my letting agency had double booked my check-in and no one knew where my keys where.

Not impressed. |
Dad and I went for a walk and ended up watching some escapee horses who were not happy and stopped all the traffic (not that is was going anywhere fast anyway).
|
Not sure whether to keep running |
|
Caught. |
We also walked down to the river, which isn't far. Though the weather was not great.

Thankfully they sorted it out eventually. On the evening, after unloading and tiding, we went out for a meal to celebrate and for father's day. (He got all his presents on Friday night.)

Enjoying. |

Smiles. |
The food was amazing (I happily live near a very nice restaurant) though the portion sizes were huge. Still I know have food for a few nights! Today Kerry and Craig left early while me, mom and dad did some food shopping and tried to do some other bits. It didn't quite work out as we got the wrong batteries and need some adapters. But we tried. And I drove in my first London traffic jam. Always fun. I'll put some photos up when I actually get proper furniture and it looks nicer.
Start the new job tomorrow. Eeeek! :)
