    Well, the viewing feedback is in, but since they are giving a similar one away up the road, mine is too expensive! Oh well - I'm in no hurry and that one will sell eventually, then mine is next cheapest.

    Putting another £300 in Premium Bonds this month.

    Will probably have a bit more to spare at the end of the month too.

    Need to up the saving stakes a bit as have gone off the boil since the ISA was filled? Hmmmmm.

    Three houses in my price range have come on the market in my favourite street and just off it in the last 48 hours! One is lovely, the second is nIce and I can't work out which is the third as there is not picture yet. But there aren't any horrid ones. Need mine to sell!!!!
    No report on viewing yet but don't expect that until tomorrow.

  • Still no viewing feedback, so I'm guessing it's a no. Half term this week so no excuse not to be clean and today at all times! Went to look at the outside of the three houses - have a definite favourite and not just because it was the cheapest! Will not get emotionally involved in it yet though......
    Need to go and find a cheap new dishwasher today - mine has finally died but as it's integrated and I'm planning on going will go as cheap as possible.
    Lovely day here and the temps for the week look not at all bad. Hope that means can manage without much CH. On a real savings drive now ready for the move when it ever happens!

    Got the feedback - garden too overlooked so not interested.
    Another viewing booked in though for Nov 5th.
    Dishwasher also duly bought and will be delivered on Nov 5th too, but after the viewing!!
    Two more weeks of washing up then!!

    hope the house hunt goes well, i'm a bit guilty of falling in love with houses and ours isnt even on the market yet!!

    Is the garden overlooked? seems a funny reason to give. Almost like the person we had who came and looked at our old house and their feedback was it wasn't in their ideal location, infact 3 miles out of it... did they not look at the address lol...
