It's the waiting that's the killer - our viewer from hell (the one's that have just lost their buyer, did the same as your viewer, kept us hanging without any word.

I gave our buyer 2 weeks to find another buyer (their buy dropped out) think that was fair but now I'm back to cleaning and tiding:curse:

Hope we all have lots of viewers over the easter hols good luck all.

At least it's back on the market for someone else to buy - nothing worse than sticking with someone for months and then having them pull out just before exchange.

I think it's a no go now.......just wish he'd have the decency to say 'NO' to stop this 'not knowing what is going on'
Oh well.......down the snake I go....back to square No 1 again

I really feel for you Beth, but it's not over until they come back with a no.

We did negotiate a little under previous offer but they are in a position to move quickly.

We weighed up spending 6k on holiday in may to validate on return tickets or 2k for single tickets. Allso still have to spend to get singles further down the line.

Buyer is going in on Saturday with her mortgage offer and solicitors details and she knows she needs to keep on top of things.

If at any point EA feels she is dragging her feet house goes back on the market, she doesnt seem to think there will be a problem though.

Brilliant news Kaye - ever so pleased for you

Of course, now we're going to have to listen to it....."I can't get a container The removals have cancelled:curse: The dog is refusing to fly OH is doing a Beth "

Seriously though - very best of luck to you for an easy transition

Yeah, mine haven't actually said that but I know they think it.

They told me some years ago I was no better than a whore This was because I returning to work after having my daughter, who was going to looked after my hubby when I was at work, as I did nights.

Needless to say the relationship went downhill rapidly from there
Although things had never been good from the first time I met them, and they realised their little boy had grown up and met someone.

I could go on all night about their weird antics over the years.

And lots and lots of others on here too

I'm supposed to be updating my website, which I had already published but due to a problem with my file management, I somehow deleted all of my back up files - doh!

Our EA said it was the worst selling period from Sept-Dec 07 for 7 years.. Most of the people at the Welsh meets are going without selling. Very worrying.

Had that happen to us in September. GRRRR

I hate mine, we've not spoke for 6 years:
You lucky thing! I hate mine, but they still speak to me - unfortunately....

PMSL Monstor inlaw. My MIL didn't want me to marry my OH as she thought I'd make him live on the other side of the city - oh, how she underestimated me!

There was a thread going a few months back where people moaned about their inlaws, very funny it was too....

I wonder when my St Joe will come... can't wait to see if it works.
