    I will shortly be in exactly the same situation - house sold but nothing bought. I was also looking at the Post office as I have a fear of putting my house sale proceeds (a large amount of money) into an internet account. I would rather sacrifice a little % interest for security. Also wherever I move there will be a Post Office near at hand to get the money out when needed for a new house purchase.

    However, like john_g66 any other suggestions welcomed.

    Thanks.
