16 3 12 Moving on (4)
Still nothing in the post but we've purchased
A wardrobe, as I'll need the extra space,
And seen a G plan dresser which will tone
In nicely with the sideboard which we own.
Meanwhile we're back to working on the nooks
And crannies to make room for all our books.

Another lot of questions, most of which
We answered last time, though it seems that each
Needs amplifying - to prove beyond doubt
That living in the loft is really out -
And FENSA documents, we've never seen,
Are held by the Council, which will mean
Another £60 we'll have to find
To prove they were in place all of the time.

Today I found the invoice for the floors
Plus the FENSA certs for the new doors
And windows which were put in back a while
All of which charmed RB and made him smile.
24 3 12
No post today, which may go to prove
We only need a date, then we can move.
27 3 12
A wodge of papers needing to be read
Arrived today - but all that need be said
Is that tomorrow we've arranged to sign
The contracts - so now everything is fine!
28 3 12
Meet with RB to check the reams of facts
Before, at last, we sign both contracts;
Now all we have to do is sit and wait
Until we can agree a moving date.
Meanwhile phone our house insurers so
They can set up cover before we go
Then if someone lets the new house burn
At least we'll have some cash back in return.
29 3 12
Into town to drop off the final form
Which Sam has signed simply to confirm
That when we move, he doesn't intend to stay
Up in the attic, as a stow-away.
A call from RB's secretary to say
All signatures are in - let's name the day!
31 3 12
Twenty four hours and nobody has rung
So we've no idea when we'll be gone.
Set up postcards with our new address
And pics of both the houses - to ease the stress.
