We're In!

We have moved in! WOOOOOOOO!

It took ages though. Me and Viv both had the day off on Monday, so we could move all of our stuff into the flat once we had our keys. The trouble was, we were supposed to get our keys at about 12, while really it took until 3 to get everything sorted. Then we went to our flat and got talked through stuff for an hour before we could start moving stuff in.

My Dad helped us once we got back from work, transporting the bits of our new IKEA bed and some mattresses we were borrowing, as well as our chairs we'd been given by friends. The 3 seater sofa was a nightmare to get in to the living room! Once we'd got everything into the flat we hurried off for a takeaway before the Dudes started showing up to see the flat.

Finally we collapsed onto our mattresses on the floor, as we didnt have time to make the bed, and Viv was asleep before I had finished setting some alarms for the next day.

Yesterday we got up early, sorted ourselves out, left a key for the builders to fit our washing machine and then left for work. The builders were kindly fitting our washing machine out of the goodness of their hearts as they really didn't have to, we're gonna have to get them something to say thanks later as they've been great so far.

When we got home in the evening we cooked pizzas quickly, then went round to my parents to use the internet, I can't wait till we have our own. When we got home we sorted a few boxes and then spent the rest of the night making the bed. It was easy to assemble, but hard work and some of the bits were impossible to put together, so we improvised. By the time we'd finished that it was late and time for bed again. Lots more still to do!
