The Stead - he loves a challenge...


So on Friday this is what's gonna happen -

I'm gonna move house - but its no simple move. For a start there will be 3 trucks. We are buying the house off the woman who is buying hours - so we have to co-ordinate getting out of ours with getting in to hers, with the same movers. Thats 2 of the trucks.

At the same time, my 'stuff' which is currently frozen solid in a warehouse, will be brought to a new house in the 3rd truck. Which has to be done on time so it doesnt sit in the street blocking it up -

At the same time I have to co-ordinate 1 bank, 2 firms of solicitors (both of which have proven themselves to be useless at one point or another during this process) and 2 sets of estate agents (one of which is criminally bad) to ensure that cash, keys and other stuff all happens on time. So we dont spend hours standing around...

Oh and to top it all off, it will likely by minus 7 degrees and snowing.  I once moved on 'the coldest day on record' - but I dont remember it being that cold...

Bezzy knows how well I do with pressure - he knows how calm I stay when people dont do as they're told, or just stand around doing nothing, or are late. So this should be fun! biggrin

Hopefully Susan has some valium on standby....

Anyone wanna come and help? (Dazza is already helping Thursday, so he's let off)

I'd help if I were local. Instead I'll try to think soothing thoughts your way :)

I think someone should video tape the event, so that we can all enjoy it.
