    Eek at the colleague's behaviour :(

    I did D of E right the way through, the first batch at our school - I loved it! Photos of my mum and I in the courtyard at Buck Palace, many years before the tours started, are lovely to see now.

    Good luck with the house enquiry and potential promotion, smallholding. :)

    If I were giving colleague no. 2 a lift and he didn't stop right away, he'd be walking. :rotfl:

    Surely it's got to pick up soon with viewings at this time of year shs, it's probably a silly suggestion but what about trying to get an ad. in country life? I've seen a big variety of houses in there, local agents will have a page or two and put in a few.

    I'm sure any serious buyers would yes, just thought it might be worth seeing if your agent advertises in there too if it doesn't cost you.

  • Probably not (she is the Mum of one of the kids in DD2's class) but she might if the house hangs about long enough.
