OMG! Exchanged
 
Just had to jump on here to let you guys know that we have just exchanged contracts on our house :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Some of you will know that it has been a long and difficult process to get to this point. We just want to say thank you to everyone that has supported us over the last couple of months, in particular those that have had to put up with my whinging....you know who you are :D

We move out on the 18th April and hope to fly out on the 20th :eek:

OMG! Just never thought I would get to the point where we could post this thread :thumbup:

Well I'm not happy :(

I was going to make the effort to actually say "hi" to you properly at the next meet up, instead of having you just vaguely pointed out to me :(

Only kidding - very many congratulations to you both :thumbsup: We wish you all the very best of luck with your move :thumbsup:

We have been very lucky... Our visa only took 2 weeks to come back (spouse visa) and the first person that viewed our house bought it. It has just taken months to get to the contract exchange point... must of had about 4 dates to fly out & we had our leaving party on Good Friday.

Thanks everyone for your good wishes....:thumbsup:

Don't worry. That's normal.

Now relax, because there's nothing you can do... just pack it all up and get on the plane.

I hope you take my offer of help seriously. I am happy to come to the airport and help... I have a big butt... I mean, boot.

Just let me know, ok?

See you guys real soon. How cool is that?!!! :)
