Three physical piles the moment you wake: keep / sell / bin. Everything you keep you carry twice.
2 Run
07:30 — Kensington Gardens / Hyde Park is on your doorstep. Do it before the day runs away with you; you won't have the will later.
3 Cook
~13:00 — cook lunch from whatever's left in the fridge. It feeds you and empties the freezer before the final clean.
4 Clean
14:00–18:00 — deep clean the empty flat. Defrost the fridge-freezer, take out all rubbish, wipe everything down.

Protect your deposit on the way out
Photograph every gas/electric/water meter and every cleaned room with a dated timestamp — that's your evidence if the landlord tries a deduction. Do the check-out inventory, hand over keys at lunch on Saturday, and give a forwarding address + a working bank account for the deposit, since it lands after you've gone. Detail on the Loose ends page.
