You should see the junk I haord, I hate to throw anything away and OH is just as bad as me.

The time wasters I've shown round you wouldn't believe......oh well. Hi OSH We have found a lovely place in Norfolk with a river at the bottom of the garden. We have a buyer for ours and there isn't a chain so fingers crossed it will all go through. I will be so pleased to get away from London but am afraid to get to excited as anything can happen. It is all very stessfull. How long have you been trying to sell I know you have mentioned it before. Are you still taking your cockerel in at night?

The house went on the market mid March and yes Flash still sleeps in the undercroft. He's a daddy though five chicks.

Redwing Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 dont give your notice in till the mortgage is totally in the bag, we got a moving date and OH gave notice on his job, when the mortgage co wrote to his employers for a reference they told the mortgage co that he had handed in his notice and out mortgage was pulled with 5 days to go before the move OH had to retract his notice and I had to move 120 miles without him, he then handed in his notice and joined me two months later (I took advantage of his absence and got chickens so it wasnt all bad ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
