What do you lot think. Because I do think that they have people who they just send round to view properties to keep the sellers quiet....
Bit of a coincidence............... Maybe the EA got the name wrong? Possibly they are ringers. LOL.

Fingers crossed they like the house!

OK, a cute, tall, strong, single, motor mechanic, with a visa.............. You don't want much do you???? Still, BE is THE place to meet visa holders. Hang around the TRA threads for appropriate introductions. LOL.

Fingers crossed this IS THE ONE!

Glad to hear you're feeling better! You seem to have done a few jobs already today.

If I were you, I'd kick back tonight and have a rest - the stress you've been under, you deserve it!
