Talking Shippers have been!

Hi everyone,
Well we are another step closer, the shippers came today. Not sure how I feel at the moment seeing our few boxes leave in a van. I hope they look after my books.
Hope we haven't jumped the gun a bit as we still haven't exchanged,
Our buyers are in regular contact with estate agent and they are just waiting for Northern Rock to issue the offer. Having spoken to my dad who is and IFA, I feel reasured that the sale will go though as buyers have paid all fees up front. Plus he says that Northern Rock are snowed under with applications at the moment but we would have heard by now if they were being turned down. Well that's my news for now.

Whew - good to hear that someone else is in the same boat. We are hoping to complete soon and our stuff will be going into storage. We also don't have out visa and are praying it arrives VERY soon.

We did the same! Our stuff was packed up beginning of Jan and left a month later, but we didn't have the visa then. figured that having had the go-ahead from TRA, a clear meds/police check we should be ok......luckily we were.

Not long for you guys now!!

Hi Jude,
We are living in Gwent, but the comapny we used have offices all over. We used Bishop's Move and took to them instantly. We ended up shipping 27 cubic feet, plus telescope and one tool box at a cost of £395 plus £60 insurance. http://www.bishopsmove.com
