    Evening all.

    Jen it's always useful to look at these houses anyway. The more you look at the better idea you'll have of what you want, can afford etc.

    This new style forum is wierd.

    Oh Dawn, sorry I thought about you this morning, but forgot tonight to ask you. Hope it all went well as it could be.

    I am going to write a review.

    It did go well apart from being very cold and wet! Luckily it dryed up for the burial but was very muddy.

    He had a beautiful horse drawn carriage and lovely coffin.

    It was open casket at the end which was a bit scary though.

    Hi all,
    House sounds good Jen, but give a lot of thought as to how much does parking concern you coz it will be nightmare if you buy it and then find out it's a big priority!
    OH's mum has spoken to a planning aid place (sorta like CAB) Bloke he spoke to reckons we shouldnt have much prob because we have been here for 8 years and OH's grandad before us for 30 years! They are coming round on Monday to take photos. Still not out of the woods though (although could be living in them lol!)
    Glad the funeral went ok lilmiss (well not glad...or ok.. but you know what i mean i hope)
