Can't advise you on the flights. Can tell you there are quite a few 0% for a year credit cards out there which you could use. Also if you remortgage the extra funds would come in handy. However you would have to wait for these things to come through.......

Hope it works out and a flamin buyer turns up!!
MIL will definitely help - although sometimes a little less help would probably be good I have admit though that it is probably more to do with me liking to do everything my own way than anything to do with her!!

yup already gone for a 0% credit card! still have to make the minimum payments tho and need to be able to pay it off before the offer runs out!
i am still hoping for a buyer - but no viewers for the weekend at the mo

well at least i can get her to look after the kids while i try and get organised

we still havent booked the flights - how long do you think we dare leave it - with our luck at the moment i am thinking we better do it sooner than later
not entirely sure how we are going to pay for them mind - we were planning on using the money from the house for stuff like this
Book sooner than later as prices just go up!!!!!!:frown:

Somme - Happy anniversary.

Daunted - fab news on the survey, like you say one less thing to worry about.

T&G - Fab news about the second viewing, you must have answered all their questions right, I bet your dreading what they are going to ask you this afternoon.

Im meant to be tidying - have viewer at 4.

LOL. I have the opposite problem, my MIL expects to be waited upon hand, foot and finger!

yup already gone for a 0% credit card! still have to make the minimum payments tho and need to be able to pay it off before the offer runs out!

True - but it eases the strain a little and you know Graz has a job to go to, so you can budget for the payments.better still, just get another 0% credit card deal to transfer the outstanding amount to at the end of the period.....

i am still hoping for a buyer - but no viewers for the weekend at the mo

Fingers crossed on that front.

Graz calls me the princess and the pea because i can only sleep if the bed is perfect - no creases in the sheets and noone is allowed to eat anything in my bed as i HATE crumbs!!!!

Princess Tiggs - has a nice ring to it!



absolutely - how do you think us women get our own way so much of the time

Very true!


hmm i bet you were counting down really
Well, I wasn't until I got to 3480 something and then I kept an eye out, but it was a fluke that I got the 3500 as I thought I'd get 3499!

Glad you're feeling better today! It all sounds like it's ticking over nicely! Have fun with the suitcases - have you read Tiggs' blog???


Well, I've just come back from a 6 mile round trip to UPS service desk which took over an hour.Flamin traffic. Can't wait to get away from it. At least I know the documents are safely on their way now.

Turning out to be a bit of a pig of a day really as my friend is back in ITU after another operation to try and fix the first, second and third operations which they botched.

This week could be our lucky week

Isn't it strange how every good thing that happens must be VISA karma????

This week so far we have:
  • Been allocated a case officer
  • Made loads of new friends
  • Received a tax rebate

...... We just have to sell the house now.... I have just cleaned right through!!! Can do no more now....

Wish me luck peeps....

ok - viewer just left (just her today rather than her whole family )
the questions she asked today were actually less worrying than the ones she asked yesterday!

when i actually got a chance to talk to her today it turns out she is looking to buy for her son and DIL and she said she is very interested and will go and have a chat with them and get back to the EA
she really is a cash buyer - and was hoping to be sorted before christmas.

... just waiting for the call from the EA now - i wonder what she is going to offer - she knows we want out asap but she also knows we will rent if we dont sell.
fingers (and everything else) crossed that it is not a daft offer - i would hate to have to turn her down

You are having a good week! Funny how it goes like that? Sometimes the bad luck goes on and on and other times you get all the good luck together. To be honest, it is the result of all your hard work!

Good luck with the viewing! Can't see how they could dislike the house, just depends if it suits their needs! So that is luck!
