Offer accepted - what now?

So we have had our offer accepted on a house we love. The vendors are looking for a 6 week turnaround and we were hoping for less so all ideal (I know it may not be so quick but our lawyer and their lawyer are aware and have been since we appointed them`) - so my question is what should I be doing?
We don't have an estate agent as we sold to our neighbour so I don't have an advisor in that sense!
Where we are:
Lawyer has purchase details address etc.
Sellers agent has lawyers details to pass on to their conveyancer
We have arranged a surveyor for early next week
Mortgage is applied for
Removals quote has been given and they will visit next week for a poke about
Picking up boxes next week
Compiling a list of people we need to notify (!)
Anything else? Am I forgetting something major?
