    All useful additions - I obviously have different priorities :rotfl:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I'm just confused why you need a corkscrew to get at your champers? :D

    People may drop by with wine. I'd also have light bulbs handy. It's shocking how mean some people can be.

    It seems like only yesterday you were "thinking of maybe moving at some point"... You are moving on Friday, that's amazing! Hope it all goes smoothly :)

    Hopefully the light bulbs will remain :D

    In any case, we'll go full LED/CFL, so I won't be too upset. We have lamps (and torches).

    We're meant to be going to a party in the evening, not convinced that will happen, although it is a 25 minute walk.

    You're going to a party the evening that you've moved? You're made of stern stuff, Ed, you and Mrs Ed both :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Respect!
