Lunch: herby chicken, tomato and lentil soup

Raining a lot here now

Windy and raining.

Bed linen washed and draped about.

Feeling absolutely rubbish. Worse than at the weekend.

Lunch was a fresh-baked Waitrose ciabatta roll with yuzu mustard, cucumber, tomato and porchetta ham. Washed down with a lemsip.

Email from the solicitor asking me to confirm that I still want to exchange and complete on the same day, next Monday. Of course I do. In my various researches, I haven't found any explanation of the customary delay between the two that confers any benefit to either the buyer or the seller

Took us two months back in March for a cash buy

Phone call from a DM at ClientGov about the possible new project. Looks like it should be a go, she's just got to sort out some stuff, confirm rates, and so on. Could be starting in the New Year, might even be before, though she said they can be flexible with dates and times because of my forthcoming move

I live about ten minutes' walk from the Land Registry - want me to pop in and tell them to get a move on next time I'm walking into town?

Just had a look on Google Maps satellite view and their car park is almost empty (imagery from this year, confirmed by checking which cars are parked out the back by mine) so they're probably all working from home anyway
