House, House, House!

I seem to be playing a game of Sims in real life at the moment. Except this is quite stressful. Last week I moved into my student digs. In-fact, I’m sat there now, typing this However, our house was far from ready. We were due to let from Tuesday (last week), Now 9 days later; Thursday, things are still not quite done. Kudos to the estate agents, they’re here every day fixing things. Just should have all been done by now!!! Yesterday was a big day I guess. Three cleaners, two electricians, a plumber, a carpenter and an oven man. Got our new hobs, clean sofas, finally hot water and central heating working complete, and the measurements taken for our new oven. Its starting to look good. Its starting to become a home. It is finally livable.

However there is still quite a bit to be done. Today the missing bed arrived, and hopefully a bedside cabinate and oven should follow. The previous tenants left some stinky rubbish in our yard that is still yet to be cleared and we’ve got a dodgey light in the utility room.

*Sigh*

Luckily Rachael has been marshelling the workmen from the estate agents to make sure everything gets done, and now that I’ve moved in I am helping. It’s getting there. Just a whole lot of un-needed hassel! This should have been done before we moved in! Least it is happening, even if slowly.

To make things worse, the bank account we set up to pay the house bills collectively still isn’t set up. It means we have not been able to pay the water bill yet – nor set up broadband or telephone accounts. Waa :’( Thank goodness for my SHINY new mobile broadband from Three
