  • sorry, when I said on the side, I meant a room with a kitchen attached. It's a horrific amount of money, however it's laid out :(

    One of the things annoying me so much today is the size of this house. When I looked round I thought how cosy it looked but the reality is that it is just bl00dy small.

    There is nowhere to put anything and it drives me mad. Trouble is when we moved here I gave away all of my white goods and some furniture because it wouldn't fit, so if I moved elsewhere I would have to buy everything again :(

    I know - weird eh? :huh: This time, there's been a slight change in delivery. Instead of a mini packet of chocolate buttons, it was a mini bag of Milky Way Stars. I had to take a second look when I walked up - I was like !!!!!!?!

    Trying to think.....hmmm.......about 6 people on here know my address, but it's been going on for 14 months now, so that probably takes it down to 2 who knew my address back when it started !!! I ain't naming names, but I know where you both live and if you're mad enough to be travelling all this way every few months to leave kids chocolate on my doorstep, you need help! :rotfl:

    On a slightly serious note, I've got a mole on the side of my neck that's started to go red around the outside and itches. I've got a Dr's appointment for Monday as I'm a tad worried. I'm sure it's nothing really and me making a moutain out of a mole hill?

    You're not making a mountain out of a mole hill (if you pardon the pun) - get it sorted!

    Just popped in here and you're talking about London house prices, they're peeing me off too!! Me and my OH are only renting here in London for two years before hopefully buying in Norfolk, and the prices are crazy.
