    Hello dear lovely chaps on LT's diary

    The news is that they're in, it went well I think, and it all feels a bit surreal - she's probably not going to be around much over the next couple days or so but sends you here best!

    :)

    HAPPY NEW HOUSE

    hello everyone.
    as Pippi said, we're in, cream crackered and slowely getting there, no phone or broadband till the 12th at the earliest - how am i going to check my bank accounts????
    thankfully we had removals men who were fab and had a slot for us at the last minute, don't know how we could have done it without them. New house was more minging than expected so it will take a while to totally clean through and get sorted. I've probably unpacked about 30 boxes so still loads to go, but as Mr LT was working two of the days since we've been in i don't think i've done too badly.
    we took custody of the cats back from my parents on saturday so they're getting settled at the moment.

    Hi Lemon

    At least you are in and you are in a good financial position to do the things you want and need to over time. All the best.
