    We'll I'm hoping to arrange a viewing with a really nice flat tomorrow. The down side or plus side depending on what way you look at it, is that it's not available until early August which is a month later than I wanted. That means if I get it, it's another month at home :doh: but it also means another month of cheaper living and being able to save more. :think:

    If it's right, it'll be worth the wait. Think of what that extra money can do for you in another month!

    I know. But I'm thinking what another month at home will do to me! :rotfl:

    I know I must show patience. Sadly I don't have much of it! :p

    I'm sure I can. But once you've got your hopes up for a certain date it's a killer knowing then it could be longer. It was meant to be 4 weeks tomorrow. Now it's gonna be 9 or so! :wall:

    Well I'm doing well for money still depsite having spent £820 on stuff for the flat, which I don't currently have! :rotfl:

    Got about £2,450 in various holes after bills and what not. Plus the £820 I've already spent takes me around the £3,300 mark.

    So my sums are still on track for having enough money for a July move. Should it be August then even better money wise.

    Right I'm boring myself now. :p

    Well, looked at 3 places. One wasn't quite enough for the money they want, one was a complete !!!!!! hole, and the other wasn't up to much either! :(

    I'm feeling a bit dejected. :confused:
