At least he let you know, so you won't worry. Hope the buyer is co-operative. if you tell him him you have already found a rental, he'll know that you are serious.

Wink Re: Whinging Pom House seller

Survey has been done, must have just been a standard as he was in and out in 5 miutes, took pic of roof and kitchen and measured rooms. Buyer said should be quick and straight forward the survey shall go to bank and he shall wait for his offer then sols to do his work then monies. I explained that we were having to move into a rental for a period of time and we are planning on 3 weeks to complete. He said should be no problem. Fingers crossed !!

Amanda, good luck with the survey.

Johull, chin up, hope karma comes round and bites them on the bum!

Driver, I think you did the right thing, those people don't deserve to sell their house!!

Everyone else, hope you have a good day.

I am having a pig of a day already. 50 minutes to do a 3 mile journey this morning, stuck behind a lorry belching out fumes. Little one late for school. Crying in the back of the car. Car was iced up. Got home to find a call to say a business deal is a complete mess and we may have to take legal action. Don't need that if we are leaving the country. It is only 9.30am on Monday. I hope the day doesn't get worse.
ooh what a horrible start to a day - well at least things can only get better

Once my survey has been done Im off to buy the new Harry potter movie ! come home sit and watch it and write out my xmas cards, sad I know but I need to get it all sorted as I will have to much on over the next few weeks. I have even bought all my pressies wrapped labelled and bagged them !!

Hope he's well enough to go back to school tomorrow and not drving you too mad!

Hope you don't need to hire a carpet cleaner like we did!!

It's getting worse! Solicitor didn't phone back, so I called again, they are in the middle of moving offices and she has cut her thumb open and gone to hospital! So I don't have an answer!

Can you get a stamp made with 'Going to Oz, Happy christmas love Tiggs!'

Much quicker!

Either that or email everyone and say you won't be sending cards due to the move, but will donate the money to charity?

glad you got your tickets sorted out - it does start to feel like it is never ending doesnt it!
at some point this week i have to organise a bbq for saturday (yes i know it is november - it was graz's daft idea) for 60-80 people - no idea when i am going to fit the shopping in

going to make a start on the filing cabinet this afternoon (mind you i said that about a fortnight ago and never got around to it!) must get all this paperwork organised
