That's brilliant about the exam marking; will definitely give you some money to buy any furniture you need. That was good thinking about the microwave too asking if you could take it into work - much easier to move it to your new place when the time is right.

I'm sure you won't have forgotten but you do have a lot going on. You didn't mention your birth certificate, it is one of those things that we only really use once in a blue moon & gets down to the bottom of the pile.

Yep I do have that- It'll be going in the new filofax. My plan is to spend a good hour or two next week tipping out the whole old filofax and going through all the paperwork to see exactly what I need to keep.Bottom line;
