The packing service was really not a big expense, much cheaper than the cost of removal on its own, so I would at least get a quote for removal & packing and a separate one for removal alone & decide then. I only went for packing btw, not unpacking

Badders Grin

To bad I live in another country Madame, I moved a lot and are an expert at packing an organizing, I can even drive the f-ing wan Smile

DartsTart · 17/04/2016 16:26

Negotiate - I got the packing service for £150

DartsTart · 17/04/2016 16:27

For that it also included dismantling beds and putting them back up in the new house ......

FancyFancy · 17/04/2016 16:43

Ours dismantled beds & put them back up too. And plumbed in our washing machine. They were fab and their packing was excellent.

Comtess · 17/04/2016 16:55

Love the candle Bads , very apt Grin.

Well. I did manage an early night. I then got up early, did a very long run with some hill sprints. Had chicken with Savoy cabbage for lunch and been gardening all afternoon. This should hopefully set the week off well. I've also forced twins into revising and wrote an essay plan about the golden years of the Weimar Republic with one, and a sociology thing about crime and punishment with the other. Do I get a prize?

Re: packing etc. Ditto with Badders, I think kettle and toaster in footwell of car important do you can do takeaway that night and toast and tea in the morning. Alternatively, we had a three hour wait in the middle of the day when the bank types were transferring the money and fucked off for lunch so we couldn't get the keys for 2 hrs. We took ourselves and removal men to local pub for nice lunch and treated them to it. In return they worked much later into the eve and reassembled 4 wardrobes for free. And moved loads of v heavy plants in pots. A little goodwill with food and drinks with the removal folk goes a long way I think.

Alsoa good tip to take photo on your phone of all meter readings at old and new house etc and email them to yourself when you arrive so you dont lose the scrap of paper you write them on.

Badders123 · 17/04/2016 18:07

Feeling better Comtesse?
We could never afford a packing or removal service plays worlds smallest voilin 😀 so we rented a truck and did it ourselves
I don't recommend it tbh! 😖
But we moved twice in one year I know so my memories are not fond!
Well.
The ironing calls to me, my lovelies. Ds1 has found s 1&2 of TM on Netflix. He is very happy 😀

JaneElk · 17/04/2016 18:11

Hill sprints Comtess??? bloody hell that's hardcore, hat off to you - you get a prize just for that alone. I ought to get off my arse and put my trainers on really, but my early morning enthusiasm seems to have wandered off.

I have finally painted my dining room. Hoo-bloody-ray!

Another advocate of packing services here. I was a life saver on moving day, they were so quick....it would have taken me weeks. AND they even packed and boxed my recycling Hmm

A 3 weeks notice klaxon for a trailer ??.....what the bloody hell? Confused

DartsTart · 17/04/2016 19:10

Oh yes - good point on photos- anything valuable / breakable - small - a quick snap on the phone - then you know you have everything ........

Lyndie · 17/04/2016 19:44

Good luck with the move Madame!! I haven't moved for 6 years but hopefully will soon too so good to read everyone's tips. Obsessive labelling of boxes works for me.

I misread Jess's tweet this morning as 3 weeks until S3 airs. Imagine my disappointment!! Confused

Badders123 · 17/04/2016 20:00

have had to break it to ds2 that this is the last series of TM.
He is very sad 😞
He said to me earlier..."I don't blame the queen for doing what she did you know 12 year old knowing look The King is an idiot"
😀

SparklesRedHotChileLeather · 17/04/2016 20:11

Your DS is a very clever boy, Badz Grin

Blame her? She was wench. Unfortunately she's now had to go from the sublime to the ridiculous.

Badders123 · 17/04/2016 20:17

....he ended by saying;
"I bet you would have done the same, wouldn't you mum?"
He knows me so well....
Grin

SparklesRedHotChileLeather · 17/04/2016 20:22

Hahahahaha! worrying Shock

Comtess · 17/04/2016 20:26

Yes I am feeling better Badders. I think I'm still a bit 'out of sorts' since travelling to be honest. I'm going to be super strict this week on nutrition and sleep, and lots of water.

A short peruse on Twitter revealed someone reading the thread, & posting screenshots of it. I was quite surprised by it. .

I was also rather deflated about the three weeks til Trailer. I mean. Come the fuck on BBC.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 17/04/2016 20:51

Screenshotted? Are we famous and wonderfully witty?

Today I have been Comtess's twin, sort of. (apart from the fitness thing)
I have done the homework hell (playing 'good cop' to DH's 'bad cop'_ and then spet the afternoon getting depressed in the garden aka try got dig over the meadow veg patch.

And now DS is yodelling for me because he is not asleep.

Madame - don't let them move the compost. Or pack away the library books that you left out for returning to the library which will then have to be posted back across the country Grin

Badders123 · 17/04/2016 21:00

screenshots?
Hmmm

Comtess · 17/04/2016 21:10

I'm not sure he/she likes us very much. #Grin

Badders123 · 17/04/2016 21:11

No?
Awww
