    I think I always expected it to be my family's home one day, no-one else has ever lived here and I don't remember living anywhere else (I was about 2 when we left our previous house). I hate that they've taken that away. Silly huh

    No Gemmzie, not silly. the thought of someone else living in my parents house, the one I grew up in, in fact the one where I was born in the front bedroom, absolutely kills me. But I know it will happen one day. I have already lost my Mum and my Dad is 89 so I have to be realistic.

    Most of us know how you feel, but as I said before, you will still have the memories (oh god, I am crying now!)

  • Not silly at all. We all place a lot of comfort in what we already know and change is very scary. But it's do-able ;)
