10:20 = GT Moment.
Keys collected, but they're still at the house with a van moving .... so I'm here killing an hour.
Tried at several locations to get online with my poshphone, but I think it said there's no signal.... so I don't know if it's something to do with my account, something to do with my phone, a setting that needs changing, or if there genuinely isn't a signal all the way from here to there at four locations.
Edit: 11:42 ... off for a driveby, they've most likely already gone.... in which case, back in 3-4 hours
Edit 2: 12:00 .... they're still there/loading, so I'm back for half an hour or so ....
Edit 3: 13:00 - just back from my latest drive past. Big van's gone, but they're still there .... one likes to hope/think it's because they're giving it a thoroughly good deep cleaning

N'ah. I don't want everybody to be my friends.
And I don't think a savoury muffin is ever going to be magnificent.

Thanks for asking, I have been wondering!I feel embarrassed to say that I haven't worked out what GT stands for? Obviously, to do with completion day, but I can't work it out.
My friend isn't a lush, by the way. Her idea of a double whiskey is a whole teaspoonful, rather than half.

Just my "nod to the ongoing board jokes" about home ownership
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Groin thrusting, eh? You could go the whole hog and do a little twerking. We house owner always like to twerk.It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.0 -
