Moving Hosue - The Sequel

NEVER AGAIN!!!!!

Apart from nothing going to plan, nothing fitting where it should, leaky (new) washing machine fittings and no gas supply (as somebody had removed about 4m of pipe and capped it off in the inaccessible loft, everything went fine :good:

Cats have been out for a sniff round there new territory (not impressed with the snow though!), Jared is complaining about everything in his room from the position of his bed to his PC desk but has been an enormous help through it all, in fact there's no way I'd ever have managed without him.

Neighbours were not impressed this morning when a very large van with "POLICE" plastered all over it pulled up at my door, I'd put my change of address (and variation requests) in yesterday and he was out to see me straight away. Went over the usual security, had a look at the cabinets and seemed very happy so hopefully should have my tickets (and variations) back a.s.a.p.

As this was a different FEO to the last one I mentioned the saga of Jareds GP letter, he was very understanding and after meeting Jared said he seemed like a really nice friendly young chap, so hopefully when we eventually get some support from his care coordinator and the new psychologist we'll be able to pursue his SGC again.

So, just another few dozen boxes to unpack, find out how you make a Tardis (as we have 22 years worth of stuff from the 3 bed semi) and get things settled down to normality again :grin:

I hate house moves so well done for getting it done and dusted. We are lucky as our FEO drives a little white van....
