I know how you feel LemonTree. Am feeling quite jittery about applying for new mortgage!
We found our dream house yesterday! Fingers crossed!!
Am dashing around getting moved out of my place while we've been house hunting. We're a bit hectic and I haven't done housework in weeks!!2019 fashion on a ration 0/66 coupons0 -

Our offer has been accepted :j- just hope the vendors find a place and it all works out! The move might take a while because of this!
Missy- the downstairs just has a really nice 'flow'. Quite open plan and will be good for entertaining. Upstairs a bit smaller than we'd like and no ensuite but it's in a great location and we spend most of our time downstairs anyway!! Decor already pretty good so we won't need to do much.2019 fashion on a ration 0/66 coupons0 -
