    :wave:Thanks everyone! Yep, lots of thinking now I have more information. And being me, I'm using the conservative price to base calculations on:

    270 less mortgage 35 = 235

    235 less moving costs stamp duty etc = 220

    220 less Northern Rock capital repayment = 215.

    So I'm looking at houses on the market for around 225 - 235.


    I'm going to look at Three Bridges and Haywards Heath to start with - with both of those, if I decide to take off in that camper van and wander about the world, everything is easily rentable, because its the south east and because of Gatwick.

    The 2nd estate agent, by the way, said that my local primary school had a fantastic Ofsted report, and that in this area this year the whole Open Day bids-on-the-day thing has come back :o:confused::D. Well, I'm glad for me, but I really don't know how families on very ordinary wages for south east England manage to raise this kind of money.

    For all you science fiction fans, this is a free official download of the official Stargate magazine, interviews with Robert Carlyle and Michael Shanks (well you knew he had to be in there somewhere, didn't you!!!)

    Thanks Squizz! I still find it hard to believe, tbh. I've just been looking on rightmove for H Heath, for the first time, and there was a house easily within my price range, within 15m easy walk of the station and near to the centre, and it was a 3 bed detached that looked nice in an area I vaguely know! I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop, but nothing has so far.

    Off to check how you are.
