Anybody fancy a spot of ironing?
Oh and a quick tip... dissolve a teaspoon of coffee in a bit of water and burn it in an oil burner half an hour before a viewing and the house will smell lovely.

In case any of you have not seen my other post we accepted an asking price offer this morning after 7 days on the market. Both over the moon, although I think in shock as it hasnt really sunk in yet....!

LOL. Glad I am not the only one that hides stuff in the car. Did the same thing a few weeks ago with unpacked cases 2 days after a return from holiday
Good Luck!
