Beth, will sign the petition, have just read it. Read about her the other day, on the BBC local news pages.

Hi Tiggs and Graz, Steve and Tina!

Hi Fly Away and Suart, hope you get some joy soon. Wonder if rates will go down this month? Will it make any difference? What's going to happen this year? <Sparky wife musing over the situation...>

I spoke to the EA about our place a couple of weeks ago, said that the only thing they could suggest was doing our back, ahem spending £10000 at least to make a **** tip into a layered **** tip. Yep, our price is very reasonable, they have written in that our first price with them was realistic, we have now dropped a significant percentage since. Happy days indeed.

TEN THOUSAND POUNDS!!!

That is an awful lot for one small garden.

I know someone on a very sloping plot, who had a deck put up with steps to it for £2K - makes a lovely patio. Is this possible for you?

Tiggs - Lovely to see you again. I am scared about property prices in Adelaide. The annoying thing is, we had a buyer for this house last June and we planned to put a deposit down on a newbuild so that it would be ready when we got there. The best laid plans eh? Hope we won't need to commute much. Maybe we'll be lucky.

When are you due to move into your new house? It must be great to have a date and be able to work towards it! Where are you going to live between OAA and the house??? Will they let you extend for a couple of weeks?

Good luck and hope you can get back on line soon!

Beth - I have signed the petition. That sounds terrible - typical of the NHS though. Sending you some Ks for caring.

Hi Flyaway

Thanks for the luck, I am trying not to get too excited about the viewing but struggling to be honest. Will be packing kids and dog off to the park like a bad parent

Hopefully it will pay off and the EA will send us some viewers.

Good luck jasonmb with the viewing on thursday- hopefully they will offer the asking price, fingers crossed.

Hi Suart

Gosh £10K is alot, fingers crossed that you get some viewers. Thanks for the luck, we are not expecting full asking, in fact Jason seems to think he will offer £45,000 under original asking, obviously there will be no sale

Beth, we have signed, Jasons dad had MS, it is dreadful, but at least he'd had a life so to speak, 35 is nothing of an age.

It's a dreadful disease. Pete has now made a living will to not be resuscitated
again. He cannot talk or do anything and is totally bedbound. Worst thing is his mind is still 100% ok but his body is slowly packing in. He can't even swallow any more and has tubes in him to stop him choking
Really appreciate all of your support on this,

The weather has been lovely here today, I am lucky enought to have a convertable and had the roof down today, Ok I had the heating blowing warm and on full, but still had the roof down Am hoping it will be like this for a few days, I need to wash it and take pics with roof down to try and sell it. Will be busy tomorrrow cleaning the house ready for the viewing but will let you know how we get on. Ouch £10K on the garden, if you were staying and could appreciate it fair enough, BUT.............

The estate agent has already warned us, if he makes an offer it will be a silly one and for them to have pre-warned us they must be expecting it too. But if he wants the house he will pay a reasonable price for it I am not prepared to give it away.

Glad I am not the only one with no motivation, I don't work, but haven't done anything for days, I need to go to the supermarket but can't be bothered to do that either

Good Luck with your sale
