We need to go see a mortgage advisor to see if we can get pre approval ( i think they call it that)

Love salad but need mounds of the stuff to keep hunger away for more than half an hour. I want our house to be sorted and not need any improvements,but know that this is highly unlikely.

Have you not seen any that has what you like then? I wanted a proper kitchen in a room of its own, I know, very English of me! But almost all we saw had the kitchen almost as part of the lounge! We finally got one that has an ok kitchen, it is open to the lounge but we have the option of putting a doorway in if we want. The bathrooms are old style too, very 80's, the kids loo and vanity are peach! Yuk.

Whats your plan? Start of renting while you look? It's not unlikely that you will find just what you want, my mate brought her house a couple of months ago and it is mint. Really I am so jealous! Doesn't need anything doing, and it's all done to a high spec. Lucky bugger.
We could have got something that was just right but we wanted to stay in browns bay and still be able to walk to work and the pubs

Re: Kiwi Bar
Do they have pubs? I don't remember seeing any!! Had 3 kids though,maybe I wasn't really looking.
Going on the websites,you're right,the houses look all 80's decor!! I can feel like a teenager again!

Yes I could do with a caffiene hit. The last one was fab but can you put sugar in this one not sweetner? I'm sure you used sweetner in the last one, I can tell you know.
No, I have to confess I dont have a real kiwi, although that would indeed be
I just have the human kind, but she's cool too.
