Just gotta get through the mri scan tomorrow and now also have DD home sick so have to leave her alone too. She's 13 so will be ok for a couple of hours, and a friend is calling to see she is ok. Just a virus, and she isn't throwing up, just not quite well enough for school.

stupid stamp duty changes 
since they've upped the lower limit for stamp duty free to 175k that's all we get on offers for our 200k asking price
had a viewing with a 2nd viewing - very keen and told us they are VERY interested .... and what???? 175k offer 
and no! don't even start talking about reducing!!! we've reduced already by 25%!!!!!!!!!! and can't afford any more

We haven't yet put the house back on the market since our contract ended with the last agent last month. After having a re-think we've decided to do up our kitchen (not spending loads on it though), to see whether that will enable us to get closer to our asking price next time we put it back on.... We're going to possibly wait till after the summer holidays before trying again here....
Am really pleased you can finally make plans to go now.... Adelaide will soon have some new residents!
