On the verge of desperation ,I tried the feng shui tip that was on here. 5 days later and after having no viewers since last September, 4 were booked in for this weekend:scared: .

Somebody has definitely been looking down on us.

My sphinxter is now in overdrive!!!

So tonight I must dream that about Rooksie and Kris.

Rooksie gets a phone call from her estate agents...they've been inundated with phone calls all morning with interested buyers for her property, it just so happens that someone she has previously shown round, a fella who recently got divorced wants a second viewing. Two other couples arrange to have a look on the same day, Tuesday.

The divorcee has a look round but doesn't say much, one of the couples bring their two young kids, Scarlett and Thomas. Thomas has had a bad cold and has green candlesticks running down his nose, Rooksie feels like telling him to go wipe it, but bites her tongue. The third viewing also goes well.

Wednesday morning, Mr Divorcee makes an offer, Rooksie decides it isn't high enough and decides to hang out for more. Couple with kids make an offer 2k higher.

It ends up Mr Divorcee and couple with kids having a bidding war!!
Mr Divorcee wins and insists on a quick completion date and wants in before the end of March.



Kris, feeling really fed up is on the computer looking through all the threads on BE. It's 4 o'clock in the morning, but hey, that email from DIMIA could come any minute!! She thinks, sod it I'm going to bed, but just before she knocks the computer off an email pops up. She clicks on read email with her fingers crossed....It says "Mortgage Refinance deals".

Feeling totally deflated and thinking she's never going to get a CO her eyes glance to the spam folder which says 1 unread message. She clicks on it straight away and there it is an email from DIMIA saying 'Visa Granted Advice'!!

Kris wakes up the whole street shouting "we've got it, we've got it".

Good luck to everybody !!

A bit spooked actually... I had a dream the other night that a guy came round to view, we were having a crack in my dream and he said he came from Seascale, a place I used to live 25 years ago.

Anyway, next morning, the phones rings, it's the estate agents..Oh hello Mrs Smith we have a viewing for you a Mr ******, from Seascale:scared: :scared:

I've got really good vibes cos' I remember my dream from the previous night.
I opened the door and he's only australian:scared: :scared:

Well he's in for about 10 mins, makes an offer on the spot, cash buyer!! 1k below asking.

Needless to say I accept, Goodbye Cumbria...hello Perth!!!
Congratulations ! Its good to know the houses are started to sell again. I'm sure you feel so very relieved. I hope more people on here manage to sell their homes very soon too.

You have no fear of Gypsy Gemini.....unfortunately for Rooksie and Kris the only thing I dreamt about last night was planting lily's and a glass roof that was leaking in
