They are coming to view again tomorrow at 4.30pm and if they offer us this we will accept. They loved the house before so keep your fingers crossed for me......

I seriously need all the karma I can get now...

k sent, good luck and keep us posted

That just leaves you flyaway.

Tiggs just relised I fly 2 days after you, no wonder it has gone quite on here

without running the risk of sounding like i'm going on, no we havent got date sorted, first time buyer says that 28th nov is ok by her but apparently she keeps coming up with more questions to be answered.,my buyer is trying his best, will talk to him about it on sunday when he comes to measure up for curtains please everyone cross everything you've got

Don't think we'll sell this side of Christmas unless someone who has already viewed puts in an offer. All gone quiet now. When DD is a bit better, I'll get the EA we think is the least worst, round again for a revaluation. It may be, we just haven't dropped the price enough, or it may just be a crappy market. After Crimbo at the latest will market it with this agent too. Just need to sell it!

yep we're going 2nd dec no matter what, somme are you the 2nd aswell from heathrow

So they have returned to the UK.....

Hope they get back to you soon!

Just look on it as cosmic ordering. The World is making sure the right people are in the right place. Find out where they lived in Melbourne - bet you'd like it if they like your house!

A little girl started in DD's class last week - from Sydney! My DD had to look after her. Very strange! I guess there is a big transfer of people from the UK to Oz and vice versa.

That sounds lovely. What an adventure for a little boy. I bet no other kids in his class go to stay with granny in QLD for the holidays!

What exactly are you saying then again you could have a point

I have spent all afternoon shopping for a farewell bbq party on saturday when upwards of 60 people are going to decend upon my house (incidentally the weather forcast is for rain ) it is going to take all day tomorrow getting sorted for aforementioned party, saturday is the party so going to be playing hostess all day and then sunday will be clearing up again ... and i would just like to point out that this party is Graz's idea not mine (i would just have gone and got on the plane and not told anyone ) so not sure how it is taking ME four days to organise

Really i dont know what i am complaining about - after all we still have a whole 21 days to organise something little like moving to the other side of the world - i have no idea what all the panic is about

Evening all!

Sounds like you all have a lot of party organising to do. I thought it was the job of your best friend to organise the leaving party??? That's what I'm telling everyone!

Hope you have a great time Tiggs!

If you organise it early enough, it shouldn't be too bad - go somewhere they can do the food for you too! Delegate lots to Duncan!
