    Vendor needs another night sleeping on the offer. Does she want to sell it or not?????????

    Why, sounds like she's a right ditherer, unless she wants to panic you so you up the offer

    Won't be doing that. The agent seems to think we're in pole position. Just playing the waiting game now.
    I am findingit quite stressful now though!

    I'm finding it stressful just selling mine :) Nothing appears to be happening but guess its all with the solicitors at the moment

    Brought some boxes/bubble wrap home tonight but can't face packing anything in case I have to unpack again if it all goes wrong

    Another wakeful night - hopefully will have a yes or a no this morning some time.
    I'll be stuck in meetings a lot of today so I'll have to have a sneaky mobile on vibrate under the table and watch out for texts that way.
    I wonder if it is all do-able by Christmas as my purchasers want?

    I'm so happy!
    Have also arranged a mortgage since I got home!
    No stopping me now!
    Hope to be in by Christmas.

    We had to - the rate we were going for goes up at 12.00 tonight! By shifting ourselves we have saved 0.1% over the lifetime of the mortgage! Yayyyyy! :D:T:D
