I've quit everything. Now what ?

Are these colours your choice, or did you leave it up to the fitter? Even so, it doesn't matter if other people like it or not - your opinion is the only one that matters.

I'm sort of with you and LL (welcome back by the way) on tipping. I would probably have tipped the delivery guys as they waited for you to turn up, but not sure about tipping tradespeople. I assume they have charged a fair price (to both sides) in the first place but I do tend to offer plenty of tea/coffee/biscuits (you probably should have bought a cheap kettle and a couple of mugs). Again - as long as you are happy then it's nobody elses's business.
Only a few more days now. If it were me I would be sleeping there as soon as possible and getting my stuff arranged but then I'm a bit more excitable than you I think. I can't wait and it's not even my place. By the way - we expect to see the photos (well, I do anyway).
Right, political interview is on tv so I had better go and see what they are promising me today.

Yes, they are definitely my colours of choice
Glad that you are waiting in anticipation . I think my emotions are not fully excitable at the moment , due to two things : first of all, I'm probably feeling 'weird', because it's dawnng on me now that this is it
A numb feeling of sorts.
Then of course, I'm drained at the moment . Yedterday, getting up early giving a 3rd and 4th coat of paint in the flat and then taking up the old carpet . Then after all that , the waiting and uncertainty of how everything was gonna pan out today.
James is there tomorrow . Thursday is when my furniture arrives(except the recliner). When the blinds are up, is when it will feel complete .

Feeling rough all day . I wasn't going to, but ended up in my fave cafe in Poole. Good move. I only go once/ twice a week at best.
Went into m&s. Nothing in there that fits. Most of the stuff is for women anyway. Selection is dire.
Went to nationwide informing them of my new adddress.
Went to dyass to pick up broom etc
Baby bawling on bus. Left my headphones at home. Won't do that again.

I'm constantly looking for storage solutions. Shoe cupboard, or rack.
Where will I put my vacuum( other than there)?
Saw something on eBay for storing broom .
Very close and humid today . Glad I'm not in London wearing a blue suit today .still, gym within the next two weeks.
The breeze is blowing now, while I'm sitting on the balcony.
I will miss this

Thanks for that
I'll,keep that in mind

Thanks folks:)

Dreaming, sorry to hear about your wiper blade .
The shoe situation : no, I'm not like the woman with shoes shoes shoes. I have about 4 pairs . The reason that is , is because most were part of the uniform I had to wear .
Reason I want a shoe rack is twofold : tidynesd obviously and of course to save my new carpet with guests and myself .

The storage is limited / non existent . There isn't even an airing cupboard. There is a cupboard where the boiler used to be.
When James makes the shelves, I will put some of my plastic crates
( not the big ones obviously ) in there and store towels etc.

Speaking of the boiler: normally I find that you have the boiler in the kitchen, and the timer is in th airing cupboard. I assume the timer must be on the boiler . If not , then I don't know the next step.

As I said earlier , today was a heavy day for me . However, I decided not to mope, and to actually do something useful.
So, I got rid of a shed load of paperwork and it filled up 1 black bin liner. The rest, or 99% is in a shoebox .

I then phoned Vanquis credit card, and told them of my new address.
Nice guy I was speaking to. He did ask me for a work no. and read out the one I used to have . He didn't ask any questions when I said I don't have a work no. Why have I still got this credit card ?
One reason : if I buy things online, I want to be more secure and do not want my bank details online. I did buy a couple of guitar bits a few months back from GAK. I notice they have my bank card there.
I have to buy a storage case for my 5 regular size basses and will pay buy Vanquis and remove my other card.
I removed my bank card from iTunes and amazon .

This leads to ..my dmp.
I'm just about to retrieve my details on payplan website . I will also look at the correspondence a few months ago regarding my offers and I will either contact them later on today or tomorrow morning by phone.

Between now and Friday,I will tidy up.this flat and wash my clothes etc. One thing annoyed me: the mattress protector and bedsheets shrunk when I tumble dryed them . So much for trying to do the right thing!

So , I'm off to payplan and then my new home to tidy up the fluff from the communal area. Hopefully nothing is said
