    I have only ever moved once as I lived with my parents until I got married and when I got back from my honeymoon I moved into hubby's house!

    I have to admit though I do love watching location, location, location to see what everyone elses house is like! :o :eek: :rotfl:

    I remember a person I know putting baby monitors throughout the house so they could learn what the prospective buyers were saying! :eek: They listened to the monitors in the neighbours house.

    My sister, her husband and their son are doing that this year as they have just built their dream home in the countryside. They used to have a few holidays every year as well as weekend breaks but now they are really enjoying their day trips. They are already looking forward to their next day trips although they have had at least one this week already and they prefer them to their holidays!

    You're not sad at all, enjoy planning what you and DH are going to see and get up to next week!

    Eee, it's today :j :j now, DH has told me this morning before he went to work that I need to appear calm and not give anything away whilst we're looking round the house this afternoon. Dunno how I'm going to manage that... :whistle:
