    Oh lost, what rubbish news :(

    Are any of the other lots good for you or was that a crucial one?

    We needed two lots really. The house and a tract of land...land is gone.

    Am so exhausted I'm tempted to just make an offer on the house and give up.:o

    But it's not perfect is it? I know it must be really draining but if you hang on, I'm sure the ideal place is out there somewhere.

    Char - I am utterly hopeless at writing in cards so what you've put seems quite eloquent to me :rotfl:

    Its ok....it means I wouldn't be farming, but its a nice house. Its enough land for our own horses. There is lots to do to improve the house, I'd be busy...which appeals. I just wanted to farm and have a ''professional'' interest in horses a bit too. We'll see I suppose.

    If we had just a wee bit more disposable income I would so get ne f those home seeking companies. I've beenlooking for THREE years now!

    Couldn't you get Kirsty and Phil to help? They always seem to be in need of househunters. Mind you I'd probably just keep asking Kirsty if I could try her shoes on rather than concentrate on the task in hand!

    You know...I would. But DH says no. He doesn't mind me being open about finances etc on the relatively anonymous internet, he would not go on tv being open about property prices etc...security, discretion and just...old fashioned ''correctness' about what does/doesn't get mentioned to people not your close friends/accountant!:o

    Just been looking at funeral flowers, aren't they expensive, Nan is around £200 :(. I've decided to plant a willow tree when me and oliver have found somewhere to live. It's just so very very hard knowing that I will never be able to see her again or phone her...
