I don't think the sheds will be an issue to be honest. We are as far away from them as we cabin be on the estate.alt80 said:Glad to hear it’s still moving along @RelievedSheff I thought it might be a much older property rather than another new one. That said although we still live in a Victorian house, with the upgrades the former owners made it’s always warm and I get what people mean when they say they wouldn’t go back. I wouldn’t go back to somewhere like my old place without making some big changes now. Hopefully the sheds won’t cause you too much bother in the future.
Never say never with house moves haha, I need to get some value before paying !!!!!! SDLT again @warby68. Idk slowly accepting I’ve probably not got another rung on the ladder.
I don't think we would go back to an older house now, unless it was something very special indeed. Mind you we don't plan to move again from this one. But we said that last time 🤣🤣🤣0 -

Thank you. I have woken up feeling much better.
I have some colour back in my skin which is a good sign I suppose.

Not entirely sure it is Norovirus now.
Not gone to work today. I was still aching all over and struggling with breathing and body temperature regulation this morning, well still am now.
The other half was ill mid last week so we wonder if it's the same thing he had but my body has reacted completely diffently to it.
Will see how I feel tomorrow but might have another day off to get some rest.

Some people I work with have had a very similar bug, one had the addition of tummy issues and she ended up being off work for 3 weeks. It seems to be affecting people differently but it sounds very nasty for whoever is unlucky enough to catch it. I hope you feel better soon.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)1

Thank you.
I have taken a Covid test this afternoon and it couldn't have been more positive if it tried. The line was red instantly 🙄
Oh well. A few days off work to rest and recuperate.
I do feel better this afternoon.2 -
