Hello all, quick (very) coffee break before dashing back out to Hip Hop, and choir practice, airport run done and even managed to get some Christmas cards and presents labelled up and sent with OH for cheaper postage fees, he wasn't happy, didn't have any room for his clothes in his suitcase. I told him to buy some new ones when he gets over there and that will be my Xmas present to him - 2 problems solved in one. I am also going to 'spring clean' or possibly even 'fumigate' his office whilst he is gone too, I'm not allowed in normally but I think it has gone too far and action needs to be taken.
Have a lovely evening all and my very best wishes to Punkdoc and OH, I hope he feels ready to face the world very soon. Spring is just around the corner.

Oh my lord Yviestevie I'd have been pitching a tent on the sellers lawn telling them that thanks to their messing around you were homeless for Christmas (no seriously; I very nearly did this in our house purchase).
Thank goodness you could "find room at the inn" so to speak. At least a conservatory is better than a barn.
I don't seem to have achieved much today. In fact if anything my attempts to clean the house have gone backwards.
Years ago we were in rented house , one month notice needed to leave. Put in offer on a flat which had been deserted by owners and so owned by building society . Offer accepted Dec 3rd, got keys April 21st!!!

isn't that what we parents are for Yviestevie?
Have a lovely cozy time.

DD well done you on the double problem solving.
I thought so too Hosta, but he wasn't entirely convinced.
Yvie, will be a very cosy Christmas if nothing else, one to tell the grandchild about later anyway.

We moved here on Dec 21st 4 years ago. The sellers said they wanted to wait until the new year but we were going to Goa on Dec 31st for 3 months.
Tough on them for messing us about for the previous 2 months.
We were meant to move in... in August. Got the keys 1st December.
MY BIRTHDAY.
