I now have a massive big bruise on my finger where it got jammed between a big box and the front door of our flat.

It hurts.



Next time I think I will pay someone to do my moving for me to reduce the risk of pain to my body.

A big THANK YOU to Kall for helping me

Interestingly enough, in an entirely "that's not really interesting at all" kind of way, moving house is one of the most stressful events you can experience.

It's just below the death of a close friend or relative, and just above your own death ...

So, what they are saying is that dying is less stressful than moving house?

What about Public Speaking?

So I'm guessing that starting a thread looking for sympathy was a wasted effort then?

How can your own death be stressful?
You are no longer alive to be stressed. :roll: hehehehe


And Sparklechick, I suggest arnica for the brusing *inserts a kiss it better emoticon*
Personally, I would rather struggle and move myself rather than having some lout that doesn't care about my stuff moving it around and potentially breaking it (or going through my toy collection)

I don't have anything to hide from moving men because I am an

I used moving men when I moved from Herne Bay to my apartment and I found them to be great. Certainly saved me and my friends from having to haul all my crap from one place to another.

Oh, and I didn't squash any fingers in the process!!
