The range cooker comes in at £699. I am going to shop around a little more though. I have a trade quote coming from Magnet on Sunday I asked for exactly the same thing so it will be interesting to see how the two compare, especially as Magnet has a 15 year guarantee. Then you think of your age and life in 15 years and panic :eek:
It's true. It's money I can't see, the previous owners have botched and botched the house basically putting plaster on top of plaster over what is wrong rather than just fixing it in the first place. Fingers crossed I have just enough to complete, it's going to be very tight.
OH doesn't realise how much I'm panicking because she doesn't know I bought a trip to NYC in Jan for us both as a Christmas / Birthday money so also need to find spending money for that :rotfl:
Houses can be a nightmare with bits you don't see. When we bought ours the bank put a couple of conditions on our mortgage, we had to have all new windows, roof and pointing done as a conditional mortgage offer!! We were young (not that im old now:D) it was the first house we looked at and mr monkey fell in love with it. So we had to live in one room whist doing each room bit by bit, when we had spare cash.
We have put blood, sweat and tears into ripping out most things and starting again from bare walls. We've just about done every room and put our heart and sole into making it a "home". It will be worth it when you get to the finishing line, in the meantime don't let it get you down, enjoy the sanding and painting into the small hours whilst listening to the "tunes" on a paint splattered radio:rotfl:0 -
Are you and others using the same payment card each time or a new one? Wondering if it is unique to 3V that I am having issues with payment not going through?
Got one on Mrs Anon's account but changed to a new 3V.
