Well here we are, it’s about 4 weeks since we signed for the flat.
It’s taken this long for me to paint over the walls and get a friend to paper over the chimney breast.
Gas and electric are now sorted after the housing association gave us the wrong meter reading, only took 3 one hour phone calls, 2 emails and a rant on Twitter to SSE to get them to correct it!.
I won’t tell you what it’s cost to fully furnish it but I’m glad I had an increase on my credit card limit and Argos did 9 months interest free on the white goods and electricals!.
We still need a bed and a sofa, the fridge freezer, washing machine, wardrobe and other larger electrical items are coming on the 7th so we’ll have to stuff everything in the kitchen until the carpets are fitted on the 13th. Broadband goes in on the 14th. Hopefully we’ll have a bed shortly after that and he can spend his first night in his new home.
Thanks to all for the support 🙂
Please excuse spelling/typos. Apart from being a clot it turns out I had one on my cerebellum that's now causing various problems!
