Moving Day
Part #1, at least
So....
From what Rent Guy has been telling me, he was going to be getting the keys for the new place on Wednesday, and we would be starting to move on Thursday....
Not quite....
Apparently, the person that was there hadn't fully left yet, and so, it wasn't until Friday (yesterday) that he finally got the keys :-/
He gave me my copy of them this morning, and the two of us started taking things across this morning as well
For the most part, all of the stuff inside the house, that had been packed, anyway, has now been taken across, and all that remains in the house now are the furniture and some small items that Rent Guy is packing even now as I type (cutlery, etc.), and I still have some small stuff and some clothes to pack as well
I still have the majority of my boxes still in the garage here, but Rent Guy has assured me that yes, they too will be taken across :-)
New place is, quite frankly, a bit of a dump....it's got a larger back yard, but the house itself is smaller, and thus, also the rooms....
Heck...non of the bedrooms even has a wardrobe!!
But...it's a place to stay....for the time being at least, and, at the moment, that's all I'm concerned about
Rent Guy has told me that it will just be the two of us there, and that nobody will be taking the spare room, so I jokingly said to him that I would be sleeping in one room and keep my stuff in the other....going by the size of them though, it may yet come to that :-/
This new place is more than this place though, so, while he's said that the two of us would be able to manage by ourselves, he's said that a few times before, and, it didn't work here, so I doubt very much that it would work there, either
He also said that there won't be any smoking inside....I'll believe that when it happens as well
Oh....he also said that he's gotten a commercial property close by as well, so I can only presume that his cars et al will be going there in due course, but evidently, will be going to the new place to start with
On the way back, he stopped off for petrol, and he was walking around the van for a few minutes trying to figure out where the cap was :-/
I eventually found the panel, and he half destroyed it before I activated the release catch for it
As to when we'll be fully moved....honestly....who knows??
As far as I knew, the deadline for moving out of here was the end of January....it's now two weeks past that, so really, I have no idea any more
