Well, it’s been a while people, but we’ve been soooooo busy – looking at houses. You would think it would be a vey pleasant experience, going round lots of houses. BUT…actually it’s really tiring! What works for one person doesn’t necessarily work for someone else (us, in this case); or the house is too dark (I wasn’t born to be a mole); or this garden is too small. Unfortunately we have a lot of boxes to be ticked (well, this is our forever home and it has to be right). There’s been 3 now, I have done 2 or 3 rooms and said, sorry, this is not for me! Poor Nick has been a bit open mouthed on these occasions, but there’s no point wasting everyone’s time.
Anyway, we resorted to putting letters through the doors of properties in our favourite areas. 45 in total, and we’ve had 4 phone calls as a result. 3 came to nothing, but one of them, we have made an offer on, and are now waiting to hear if it has been accepted. You just know when a house is right for you don’t you? This one WILL tick all our boxes……when it has been done up! Which is something I really didn’t want to have to do…..but hey ho! Here we go again!
