Know exactly what you mean Tracy, this place is getting like a pig sty in the hope that we get a viewer and I have to do a mad, frantic rush clean.

Glad I am not the only one

AAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH - Nope still don't feel any better:curse:

Trying not to look at BE too much as I just want to go, but as I am refusing the clean the house in the hope that someone wants to come and look and I have a dash round like an idiot cleaning it, I have nothing else to do but look at BE. Wish day time TV was better!!!

Tracy

Sorry not been on for a bit.

Been so down with this trying to sell house. Everyone says things are now starting to pick but not where I live. They do say Spring is a good time and people do buy houses then. I wish all of you loads of luck.
I have been cleaning at least 1 room aday to keep on top of things just in case the EA calls. Even thought of trying one of these web sites that sells house at £250 but no one heard of them who I speak to.

Thanks Jasonmb - We will see if he even rings cos he never normally does when he says he is going to.
I have been looking at the EA around here and there seem to be a lot of houses selling in all price ranges and there are quite a few sold at 1 million +, maybe things are looking brighter. Lots of sold boards everywhere except here.
I am going to stop being so impatient. Going to try and think of something else.
I would love to start a web based business doing something but don't know what, any ideas welcome.
Had thought about a new occupation when we eventually get there and told OH that pole dancing would be good. His reply was "what a scaffold pole" ha ha.

Hope the singing helped Gonnago! I remember when my DD started nursery one day a week - scary but good. Once the first few weeks are out of the way, you start to look forward to it. Honest.

Good luck with the chasing. They haven't applied to Northern Rock have they???

I'm sure it will happen in the end. Can't imagine what you are going through.

night somme.

Good luck with the EA - they sound quite human. I sort of don't want to find out because if they aren't interested it is my bit of hope.....

You will have viewers soon - I promise.

LOL - I'm sure it will help - don't forget the slip on shoes and the jacket hung on the hook in the back of the car.

Hi Julie - I was SO down last week, but things have improved. I hope that they do for you too. I used one of those comapnies for a bit - Houseladder - they were quite good, lots of viewings and a couple of offers but the offer we accepted then pulled out. GRRR.

Hiya Beth,

Fingers crossed it's a viewer and not a satellite that hits your house. What's that song..

' I saw a shooting star last night, I wished on it, but it was only a satellite, it's wrong to wish on space hardware....'

Sounds very promising. A few have sold round here in our price range now too - plus there are some more expensive than ours to make ours look like a bargain.


Web business..... let me think how about voodoo dolls of EA's..lucky charms...loo roll folding training courses...

Sorry, will have a real think.

Good luck to everyone.

Julie, You are good doing your cleaning, but I just don't have the motivation any more, which is really strange, when we bought the house I LOVED it, just had to have it and was going to live here for ever, I can't belive how desperate I am now to get rid of it. Just do an interenet for quick house sale and see what comes up, you will find a few companies

Fingers crosse for some movement, sold boards are promising and at those prices too. We all need to think of something else to think of and not just house selling, I hope you thumped your OH for that

Thanks Tracy...

...well **** ** *****

Another viewer on Thursday, although not so attractive as it's a guy not local who wants a buy to let property. EA said your place is immaculate, would be ideal, but honestly, BTL round here are normally non done up places so if he's interested then he may take the pee if he puts an offer in.

I say if because he's not a local, so will probably be shocked by the back.

Come on....I'm going to be greedy and ask for a 3rd viewer!!!!!
