    Sorry it was that blah, Hypno, I hope you can potter about a bit on here and then blow the cobwebs away later on.

    Good morning,

    Scratchies done.

    Still surrounded by boxes!!!! Got to get things sorted today.

    Also going to start on the wardrobe clearout. I was quite good before flying back and ruthlessly disposed of 5 tops/t-shirts and a pair of ankle boots past their best, I did actually take some nearly worn out clothes so that I could dispose of them there to help on luggage allowance on the return leg. Lots to do here.

    We now have a short list of 15 properties, scattered across Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Somerset & Gloucestershire. Still a few properties where the agents didn't send details, so we'll phone to chase them tomorrow. Massive differences in prices too £150k from the cheapest to the dearest, so big decisions on how big a mortgage we'd want/need.

    Hope everyone has a good day :)

    Good morning Hypno
    I can't decide whether to have a me day today and just sit with the laptop on my knee. It's so cold and bleak here in the NE and it's pouring.......definitely not a day for going out. Maybe I will gear myself up to do some housework at 9.30 and intersperse it with lots of coffee breaks. See -you have possibly inspired me to do something :D
    Have a good day

    Please let it be the latter. If I can't buy my dream house yet, I'd at least like to live out my dreams through yours Se! :D

    Yes we are looking for the dream :D

    Will post some links later, still busy with the boxes and wardrobe clearing.

    I definitely don't need any more shirt type blouses :o So going to put some of them away, so that I wear some out, and then will use the others. They're classic styles, so won't date. Got to make a list of what NOT to buy :o
