Red face How Not To Sell Your House!!

Some of you may remember that we had an offer on our house a couple of months ago, but the buyers pulled out 2 days later. They came back today for another look - these are the lesbian kitchen fitters. I arrived home just before they were due (they were in their car outside) to find my husband had put on the 'Queer As Folk' soundtrack. I rushed to turn it off and asked him, when he appeared, if he realised what he had put on He said he thought it would make them feel at home :scared: and he wasn't joking!

That's really funny! Who cares what they are as long as they buy your house though!

Just an update - they're offering on our house and the other house they like across the valley and by the sounds of it, will go with however will reduce their price the most! Hmm - not sure I want to play that game - they could go with ours and then the other seller a month or so later may reduce again and then they could quite likely change their minds AGAIN....

We have another viewing this evening - so fingers crossed ..........
