So following my hostage hell I moved back to Lancaster and I’ve been looking for flats and jobs since

I started my new role last week and I’ve managed to snag myself a GORGEOUS flat (on my own this time ) in the centre of Manchester and I (hopefully) move in on the 29th

I’ve ordered a load of stuff for it, but any suggestions of what else I need will be appreciated!

So far I’ve got a huge kitchenware set, microwave and toaster (so I think I’m all set for the kitchen), bedding, towels, mop and bucket, a Hoover

What else do I need?

Ah great news Smithy....hopefully by then we will be in Tier 2 too. Sounds like you're all set on the house front, once you're in and settled you'll probably realise there is other stuff you need. Glad you managed to move past the hostage hell and it didn't put you off Manchester

[Ammi]

...Smithy.....a wonderful new start and everything falling into place for you now...I wish you such happiness......the ‘essentials’ will make themselves known quite quickly and you’ll get them as you go along...but get a great pic of GaGa for your wall...something that puts you straight into the flat and makes it totally yours and your home...

How exiting really pleased for you Let me think have you got a toilet brush? Tea towels, washing up sponges, kitchen bin and waste paper bins, laundry basket, clothes airer, Those plug in air fresheners are nice ..most important a kettle.

If it's laminate flooring you can't use a mop on it you know.

[DouglasS]

You’ll also need an iron, ironing board, bathroom mat, maybe a bin

[DouglasS]

Also which bit of the centre are you? Ancoats, castlefied, new irwell, edge of Salford?
Just to make sure we are not living in the same building

[Cherie]

Congratulations, as you appear to have the basics might be better to wait until you move in, that way items are delivered rather than you having to transport them

[Denver]

Have you ever lived alone or have you always had someone?

[Smithy]

Thanks yall

I might actually get that wall art ammi

I think out of all the stuff everyone listed I only need a bin, so I’ll add it to my list

I’ve only ever lived with other people Adam

[Jake.]

...get that lady on your wall...she’ll inspire you and guide you to all of the stuff you’ll need ...and to the stuff you don’t need as well......

[arista]

Good Luck

[Ammi]

...also it’s good to wait for anything you’re able to and get it when the sales start very soon..a smart/save money, bargain gal is a happy shopping gal...

[Kate!]

Congratulations Sir Smith. I hope you'll be very happy in your new abode. You'll need a nice Christmas tree. Xx
