things are moving along with the house-purchase, lots of form filling, photocopying, rummaging through boxes of crap to find old paperwork. One of P's colleagues got gazumped on their purchase which is always a worry, but there's nowt you can do about that sort of thing just hope it doesn't happen to us. given that the person buying our property is buying it for his son, and the property we are buying is empty, if all goes well we could be in there without too much delay. It would be great, as I'm chomping at the bit to get in.
