The exchange occurred this morning, and completion is due Jan 28th 2009, giving me a couple more pay slips to help pay for everything.

I'm still not sure how real it all seems, because it just feels like collecting paper work transferring arbitrary amounts of money around. Not that they are actually arbitrary, I've paid for 10% of a £180000 house so far, it just feels that way.

The whole process has really brought home how meaningless money is, and that only in using it or not having it does it have any real presence. I mean I've earned and saved a lot of money, but that money had no value outside of being a deposit for a house. There was no way I was going to just spend it so didn't matter how much it was, just if it was enough or not.

In this situation it's enough, just, but enough all the same.

Then again all that above thinking may simply be a result of living with my parents (that which put me in a position to save up my arbitrary figure of money) and being a level of indirection away from the cost of living.

Anyway ramblings aside. Woo! Exchanged! I'm exited now, but also planning to make the most of time of not being a house owner and all the responsibilities that entails.
