    Had the very same broadband issue Bobproperty, why do they tell you that it will all be connected on the move date then change the story once you are in? another 10 days later....

    Also, at home, 3 little-uns, and there is NOTHING on tv (even Life of Brian is doing my head in!) so me and DH have raided all the kids selection boxes. (well, its saving their teeth).
    Happy new year everyone.

    I actually went out for the first time since Christmas Eve this evening, and here I am back already because not only am I still ill with lurgi, but I've got a new lurgi and had to come home.

    Weeeeeeeeeeeep.

    But Generali's message was lovely and I ditto such a thoughtful thought :D

    Merry New Year :beer:

    A house isn't a home without a cat.
    Those are my principles. If you don't like them, I have others.
    I have writer's block - I can't begin to tell you about it.
    You told me again you preferred handsome men but for me you would make an exception.
    It's a recession when your neighbour loses his job; it's a depression when you lose yours.

    I've been out for a few myself this evening. Got in a couple of hours ago to be with the family.

    Here's wishing a happy, healthy and prosperous new year to you all.

    #1. The people that run these "sell your house and rent back" companies are generally lying thieves and are best avoided

    #2. This time next year house prices in general will be lower than they are now

    #3. Cheap houses are a good thing not a bad thing
