Got the nice flat in Walthamstow we wanted!

(So damn, blast and bugger with hot pokers the wastes of skin we dealt with on Saturday ...)

Currently negotiating move with owner (who is moving out over the next few days) with a view to getting in there on Saturday and/or Sunday.

So. I would like your tips on moving. Tell me all about moving a small but unwieldy quantity of stuff across Lahndahn.

(Not much stuff, but a few items - 6'×6'6" mattress, 28" telly, stand for telly - are annoyingly unwieldy. So it's probably van time. Also, I think my licence is valid here, but I have no experience of driving in London and consider this would not be the ideal opportunity to gain it.)

If there is a housewarming, it will be after Whitby.

If you're over 21 and you have a standard UK car licence it covers you to drive anything up to the size of a Luton van. That's a 7.5 tonne vehicle.

Oh, and if you're going to rent from Sixt, book it online - there's a substantial reduction in price. http://www.e-sixt.co.uk IIRC

I was not most pleased when I discovered this fact.
