Your reviews are very good and easy to read are you enjoying it?

Yes, but I've started to rein it in a little, as I don't want to be labelled as a total churner With the vouchers I've earned so far I've been able to buy my GF the complete X-Files box set (61 DVDs!) at a real cost to myself of less than £20 :money: Sure, her Birthday isn't 'til October, but it doesn't hurt to be prepared.

I do find it hard not to write lots of reviews. This is due (in part) to the fact that I'm a library cataloguer and writing descriptions is literally my bread and butter..

I have been thinking about the house i looked at all day! The parking and the money are the main issues there may be ways around the money like a very very low offer? The parking could be solved for me by getting the curb lowered so i can park in my front garden but it would mean the other residents losing a space! Unless i made room for 2 cars to park on my front and let a neighbour park there?

I'm not 100% certain, but I think you may need planning permission to do that - I'd check before committing.

oh thanks i will look into it. I don't want to move in and upset all the neighbours by causing a parking nightmare. i might go for a second viewing and chat to the neighbours about the parking problems. I don't want a house i can't park at! Then i will check with planning

I know but I haven;t finished my challenge yet so want to get it finished. Am on £45 so not far to go.

Good luck with the mortgage chat and remember to get a second opinion from somewhere else too as these people will get commissions for the products you buy, so make sure you're getting what is best for you not them
