House update

[abigailbrady]

All went through nicely last Thursday. Since then I have

*had replacement carpets fitted upstairs. old carpets being picked up soon.
*had a fridge-freezer, a bedframe, and a dining table delivered
*started assembling the dining table
*got a washing machine on order
*arranged for a car for moving boxes on this Sunday morning and the Sunday after (help with box wrangling would be welcome)
*arranged professional movers for furniture on the 6th
*ordered a telephone line, to be connected on the 9th

I need to:

*sort out bills, council tax, contents insurance
*buy curtains for upstairs
*get more quotes for work on fascia & soffit

Also, it would be good to:
*get fusebox replaced with something modern, put kitchen on separate ring, some more sockets in kitchen
*lighting fixtures need properly attaching to ceiling, rather than just dangling from wires
*doors are hung slightly too low for the carpet

The wires hanging from the ceiling aren't red and black are they ?
A friends house rennovations included removing gas light brackets from the bedroom walls :O

Mm. Sorting out a house myself at the moment. Won't get confirmation on the mortgage for another week or two yet, I imagine, so haven't really got round to the nitty gritty yet. Suspect I'll need to get a builder in to look round and tell me what needs doing though, as there's possibly some structural stuff that needs sorting out. Also: congratulations and stuff!
