How to move house (the easy way)
1) Buy a house.
2) Settle on a date for getting the new house.
3) Decide on a moving date.
4) Call up all your friends, and ask if they have cardboard boxes for your move.
5) While you're at it, ask how many of them are free to help you move.
6) Organise for a moving truck.
7) Organise for utilities to be turned on, the day you get the house.
8) Block out a date on the calendar with MOVING DAY written in big red letters, and plan your life around it.
9) Move.

Just show you it can get worse though...Our house's former owners were *still here* when we turned up on Moving Day with our removal trucks, well after the Moving Out and Vacating time.
They had not even finished packing.
Our removalists had to help theirs to load their trucks, so our stuff could finally go in, several hours later.
May your Moving Day be filled with only a totally vacant house, friends and family, and no former owners or their rubbish!
