Great to hear everything went smoothly on completion day after the horrors of the weeks before.

Good for you on calling it a day and having a glass of Prosecco at a fairly early time rather than just carrying on. I'm sure you'll have your stuff sorted in a few days with your organisational skills!

Hope you're really happy in your new home and it's everything you hoped.
