    the only independant we've ever been to were a bit pushy iyswim and i didnt really feel comfortable despite telling him to leave us alone (in a more polite way).
    We tried this out in mothercare but DH had preferred the quinny.... I dont remember it being that wide :eek: have to look at dimensions again versus what we've got....

    we have an awkward entrance to our house. the front door opens straight into the sitting room and the stairs are right there with a turn. so getting wide things in is really hard. if the bottom of the stairs was facing the door life would be a lot easier....

    No! The only reason i've been offered this is cos my mam lives there and they are big on "community links", nothing to do with my neighbour situation. I am not going to dwell on the fact i didn't apply sooner :mad: But it's done now and i didn't expect to get offered a house within days :eek:

    ahhh. i see. is it a 3-bed on your mum's estate?

    I thought you'd won the lottery, Beenie! But I suppose this is a similar feeling you, lol (to get away from those neighbours, anyway). Fingers crossed it all works out!
    top 2013 wins: iPad, £50 dental care, £50 sportswear, £50 Nectar GC, £300 B&Q GC; jewellery, Bumbo, 12xPringles, 2xDiesel EDT, £25 Morrisons, £50 Loch Fyne

    would like to win a holiday, please!!

    yeah :D I lived there from birth - 16. Can't see my mam from that house so i'll still have privacy. Oooh i'll be able to send the kids round for their tea etc lmao!

    lol Aless, this is not as good as lottery but if i think how much my entire life has been affected by them for a year now, i could cry and scream and shout, which i've done all of those things a lot anyway, but if this goes through it will be a fresh start for me and the kids, away from all the crappy memories with ex and the scum who live here now.

    I really will miss my house though. And !!!!!! i put that posh paper up @ £16 a roll. !!!!!!.

    I rang them when i was pregnant about getting help for here and they said it's only for old people who can prove they have no able bodied family to do it for them. Stoopid.

    Not sure what state the house is in, it might be liveable for a bit but might need doing before we move in. Am gonna go nosey through the windows now :rotfl:
