Moving House

By 3rd August 2015No Comments

A busy old week for Helen and myself. As you’d imagine it’s been rather occupied with our house move, which actually went rather smoother than expected.

DUKE2729We picked up our keys on the Thursday after a very quick transfer of monies and contracts, and come the afternoon we were rather proud homeowners.  We moved a tiny bit of furniture and food, but most of all wandered around the empty house.

It didn’t stay empty for long though, as come the following morning we quickly packed all our possessions on to a van. With the preparations of Helen before the move, and help from our parents, loading the van only took an hour and half!

The sun was shining and we drove off to Burton ready for the unload. A few packed sandwiches from Mum, and the arrival of extra help in the form of my big brother, and we were off again unloading.

Three(ish) hours later and we’d shifted it all in the house.
