    Belated happy birthday Melly.
    Is the property you had a sneaky view of a ground floor flat? Bungalows tend to have a bit more floor space and as it's in a nice area I hope that meets your needs when you view it.
    Your cats do make me giggle. I had a cat in my teens that came on walks. One of the long roads we walked down had trees every few feet along the pavement and he would run up each one , back down and then race to catch up with me.

    Bungalow also sounds like it has the added bonus of no attached idiot neighbours.
    Really pleased that things are happening for you at last and that work have also started to show a bit of sense.

    Well a bigger bathroom is a plus. Have you managed to reduce any of Mr Moos stuff and stem the tide of more stuff coming in?

    Is Mr Moo someone who knows every single item he possesses such as a cable from a long defunct piece of tech? If not could you "lose" some of the stuff during the move . Keep the really important stuff but weed out the Justin Case things. If there's room in your friends shed maybe leave the stuff there clearly labelled to go to the tip later.


    If he wants it all is he likely to be convinced that moving to somewhere smaller minus iffy neighbours and other problems means more peace and privacy and not being surrounded by stuff is a new start for you both and less stress and knowing where things are which matter and do have a use?

    Tried explaining hoarding to his family
    Let's put it this way, I did a small throw out when he came back from hospital, one of these was a box for something, he remembers that he HD that box. This was lost 2 years ago
    Cant remember if he took his meds, can remember a a 7 year old box
