The only thing you might have is that you could be stuck at about 1020...the Woodfordes kits are known for it.
If it does stay at about 1020 for a couple of days give it a good stir and turn your temp up a bit, infact I'd be inclined to up your temp to 20 now and it's probably less likely to stick.

but it was really nice.
nowt wrong with having a taste at week 2 and a taste at week 3 though!
If I was you i would move it the night before you bottle, rather than just an hour or so.
Are you batch priming or are you priming each individual bottle with a little sugar? If batch, then could you transfer from FV1 to FV2 (if you have FV 2), then move to kitchen? That would solve the problem.
