  • I hope it goes well! Looking forward to your next update :)
  • Morning lovelies :)

    Four viewers ended up as three as the third one bailed out and rebooked for next Saturday.

    Spoke to the EA FA and all good, what we're after they said that we will get a lender, based on what DH earns, scary :eek:

    We are going to see a house today :D it's lovely from the photos but it is next to a substation and they buzz which is a downside.

    So we went shopping, bought two tops, one I love, one I bought as I as wheh! Just a secret Santa to buy for.....any ideas? Max £5?

    I did also buy a cardigan for the office from Primarni, that is sooooooooo warm, I hate being cold, so that's a need lol
  • Good news on viewing on yours, lender and the viewing you have booked today. Hope it goes ok. Is secret sonata make or female or don't you know?

    If female I tend to find, a face mask, nail varnish, body buffer thing etc... all in a small gift bag looks lots for a small amount. If you don't know whether make or female get a small jar and fill with hot chcolate, top with small marshmallows and tie some ribbon round and hand write instructions on a nice tag (you can do the same for muffins or similar (minus egg of course ;)) if you have the ingredients and a big enough jar.
  • Good luck with the viewings at your house and you going to see another, sounds like there is a lot of interest which is positive.


    Have you managed to get a mortgage offer in principle which would give you a good guide for your budget.


    Enjoy the rest of your weekend, H x
  • I'm glad the viewings went well - you're off to a great start! And looking at another house already, it must be exciting! I'd be a bit scared to live near a substation, a lot of people refute that they are a health risk but then they used to say that about smoking, didn't they? It might be something to consider though if you think you may move again at some point. I'm not the only one who would discount buying a house close to a substation, but if you plan on it being a forever home then it wouldn't be an issue.

    £5 budget would get you a nice packet of speciality coffee beans which is a lovely treat for someone who likes good coffee and you known has a grinder.

    Thanks, yes the FA we saw on Saturday was really good and we have got a figure in mind how much we can spend.

    The house we saw yesterday was a no, there was a lot of niggly things that were wrong.
