Ready to do it all over again ...

Not until the house is completed Beanie in case the mortgage company do any more checks before completion.

So, further update ... yesterday I had the meeting with school and they have chosen to put lots in place to support ds, with the proviso that if things don't go well I can still remove him before we hit the permanent exclusion point. I am going to give this a go, it is preferable than a new school for him. He will return on a reduced timetable to begin with, which will be fine while I'm signed off. I need to decide what to do about the new job now, although the house is a bigger thing to keep me occupied right now - we were told we would exchange yesterday, it didn't happen so today I am sat around waiting for a call. The solicitor rang earlier to say the buyers solicitor had another question and wanted the service charges sent across. I pointed out we had already answered the question previously and have emailed the service charges twice ... am now waiting to hear if/when we exchange. Everyone is still on for completing this friday :eek::eek: I am so excited / scared / stressed all rolled into one, this isn't doing my "signed off to destress" time any good at all

Ah sorry benben I hadent thought of the mortgage company doing more checks!
Hope hope all completes very soon for you.
Glad that the school are finally putting things in place for your DS~better late than never & I hope all goes well.

The school plan sounds quite positive which is good - it's worth a try. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that your house sale goes through this week. I exchanged last Friday and complete this Friday and it feels like a weight is gradually lifting, notwithstanding final packing, cleaning etc. I hope the time away from work is helping too.

We exchanged contracts about an hour ago and are completing tomorrow :j:eek::j:eek: I have sooo much to do it's crazy, I may not be around on here much for a bit as I haven't yet arranged new broadband etc, but hey, no point doing things the simple way huh!?

Next chapter here I come

Good luck Blackcats with your move tomorrow too xx

What excellent news. Good luck with the move tomorrow and I look forward to hearing that you've moved in and settled ok.

Best of luck with the move BB, and fingers crossed the school's decision will make life a bit easier on you both.

Great news Benben. Hope the move went well. Waking up today in my new home feels like being on holiday - that was until I saw all the boxes still to be unpacked! Have a great weekend in your new home.
