    Can you drive by?

    Seize back control:)
    It's not a drive by situation. It's 6 built, but not in a row. You can see 4, two are "round the back"; certainly some are cluster houses..... and you have to pull off the road, up a single-car width into the car park of the properties .... where they'll all be sitting and watching as you try to see if any have door numbers on :)

    And even in google satellite view, it's just an empty plot. Tried googling the planning for the plans submitted, can't see anything.

    The original sale is showing on RM sold, but not linked to any RM details. So no clues there. Also googled the address, parts of the address, nothing I can pin down.

    Yes and I replied that this network allegedly has the best signal in the whole area. It's not until you actually try to use a phone anywhere that you really know.... and you can't do that without owning it.


    And I said you could run a manual scan for networks using your new phone and see which ones it finds/finds quickest in 2g and 3g form.
    I think....

    Someone just pointed out its 10 'sleeps' till Christmas and even though we're not doing anything fancy or big my blood froze a little. I have missed a week out in my pre planning.

    I suppose I should go to bath tomorrow. DH needs more than some of all the s's pants, right?

    Edit,,,,its ok,..they got it wrong. Woohoo. Three days younger again.

  • Have a few naps and make it 21 sleeps?
    ...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.

    B4lls... arranged house viewing for Tue, but I have a s0ddin' "inspection" on that day and I don't like them letting themselves in and snooping about .... not to mention the fact I am super-fastidious about security and I can't ensure they'll shut the door properly ... grrr

    I'd planned on doing the house viewing, then having a good old scout about the area.... and as it's a 35 mile round trip there/back I can't do it twice... especially as I've no idea what time the inspection might be (could be 9am or 5pm or any time in between).



    Tell your inspection people something has come up and you are no longer available for inspection and you will have to rearrange. Will Wednesday do? No.....ok Thursday? Ok, new year it is then!

    You have that right pastures,
