in Today...

  • Yesterday
    I packed only 2 boxes, and spent the day mostly planning furnishing for the new house.
  • Friday, 17th May
    I collected the keys for the new house, and spent a whole working day there just checking and measuring stuff.
  • Thursday, 16th May
    I started packing the first two boxes, and realised there was not going to be enough space for all the packed boxes in my tiny flat.
  • Wednesday, 15th May

  • Tuesday, 14th May
    I waited for the delivery from packingboxes.co.uk to arrive as promised, but it never did.
