The move is complete!


And so as one chapter ends, another begins as me and Jamie finally made the long awaited move into the new place this weekend.

Everything went pretty much according to plan except for a disaster with the beds bought from Ikea last weekend. With the help of my parents and Dave we put up the two beds in decent time but then both got to a point where we had to stop- because there was a middle piece missing from both! Apparently you’re supposed to know when visiting Ikea that there’s some secret extra parts to buy that aren’t advertised or made clear about in the basement where you pick up the parts. So having crammed both beds into Jamie’s car last weekend we’re now left with two beds that are only half complete!

Barring that though everything went well and we’re now fully moved in and already the atmosphere of the place is pretty damn good! It still feels like a holiday at the moment as we settle in but long may that continue. The night was spent in the Frog and Frigate- the home of any celebration in Southampton.
So home sweet home it is and as the summer months are upon us we can fully enjoy the middle part of a grand year so far!
