house update

[woolymonkey]

We are creeping cautiously forwards.
Survey issues resolved - small reduction to cover electrical work: tick
Prices agreed for appliances and curtains: tick
Completion date of 3rd April: tick
Solicitors sorting out small print of clauses and exactly how the money changes hands: pending.
Tortoise out of hibernation and ready to visit bugshaw: no, but we know where he is and we have a spade.

Hoping to exchange contracts this week, but of course, it could still all come tumbling down.

Nervously hopeful monkey is hopeful and nervous.

Progress is good! I am sending lots of good thoughts.

And hee! I actually was wondering about the tortoise just the other day.

Thanks for the thoughts. I hope the tortoise appreciates them too.

Fingers crossed for you.

Thank you.

That's a nice lot of ticks!

I like ticks.
I particularly like the last tick box for marking Spiders's Music GCSE composition work, which is 'doesn't just tick all the boxes'. But what if it ticks all the boxes except that one?!?!?

Very exciting! I hope everything goes smoothly!

Thanks. Here's hoping...

That seems all of the good to me. I will be crossing fingers for you.
This week and next are a bit up in the air at present, but I'm hoping to know what's what fairly soon.

Thank you. Sounds like neither of us is going to be planning much, but we can improvise!
