Packing looks simple right up until the boxes start piling up in the hallway, the tape runs out, and suddenly the kettle is in with the towels because, well, it seemed like a good idea at the time.

If you need to move today, the clock suddenly matters more than the boxes.

If you are planning a move near Holland Park station, you already know this part of W11 has its own rhythm.
