Moving
Ok we're now moving house! fortunately it doesn't require a one day massive heave - which is good because there are several things which need doing before/ as we settle in. The sellor was a professional electrician of the sort who add things to his own home that he wouldn't (or oughtn't) countenance in any other circumstance!

Also both gas and electric are on prepayment meters with next to nothing on either, and we can't use the top up cards are they are registered to him! New cards are - hopefully- in the post We can't get the meters changed for at least a fortnight and even then it's do one then do the other otherwise the supplier charges a £75 fee to convert!

The upside is that I can retain my existing phone number and the transfer will take place in about an hour, the downside is that the Broadband is a seperate munit and I can't ask them to transfer until after the phone has been changed over, then it could be p to ten days of Dialup until we get broadband back.

Service will be erratic for a while.

Take care
