We finally exchanged on our new house today, seemingly months after our offer being accepted, but actually it was only 75 days. To celebrate we went to Pizza Express in Marylebone, which may not seem that exciting, but we had our first date in a Pizza Express on London Wall all those years ago 🙂…

Yay, this should officially be our new house in a few weeks. no more flats!
