Re: Why isn't anyone happy for us???

You've done the best thing, left it open for when he's ready, to have a good talk to you. You can't really do anything other than that.

Re: Why isn't anyone happy for us???

TBH I have never related the words 'having a paddy' in anyway to the Irish. I've been brought up with it meaning having a tantrum, a mardy so to speak.

But you learn something new everyday.

Re: IT'S OFF AGAIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!

They should have the same law in Scotland, if someone puts an offer in and it's accepted, it's set in stone and the buyer buys it!! No going back.

Re: house sale (what would u do???)

The only contact you can have regarding selling your property is your estate agents and your solicitors.

Re: Rentals in Perth

Hmm maybe I didn't quite explain myself well.

I mean, we plan to work in the city centre of Perth but look to live around there. Even if it means a 30-40 drive to get there. But I will have a look...

Re: What if I can't sell my house in the UK?

I can't comment on the Oz prices, but UK prices aren't really slipping. The market is slow at the moment, true, the last few months have levelled off somewhat. But I doubt a price crash of any sorts...
