Well that's the missus and I in our new place, which is our first home 8)
Downsizing is not fun, even worse when coupled with a move. Going from a 3 bed with a garage to a 2-bed without meant getting rid of a lot of stuff as well as building a large shed with a concrete base, painting most of the walls due to a dubious colour choice by the developers and dealing with the incompetence of Sky BB and Virgin Media call-centre staff.
Now I am connected to the Net @ 104/9.4MB I am very excited about being able to watch films on demand at last! My last place had 1.4/0.5MB on a good day. Plus the Leaf has a proper charging point now and can make full use of the 16A charger rather than the 10A I was using resulting in faster turnaround after the regular trips to Heathrow.
The only problem is that all the stress has turned me a little bit more grey and being the only one who could really carry anything heavy means my back is f.......... :(
But, very happy to finally be a homeowner :y

Agreed. They have no idea the knock-on effects of their delays. My march-out of the military quarter was fixed due to the holidays so the later the completion was the less time was had to get that ready to hand back. I recently received a feedback form from them......oh boy!

But with your metabolism you wont have any issues. I have some great little winter rides planned out. I hope you have some thermals ;D

Plenty to drink here, made more apparent by the move :-[
