Default Our new house!! Nearly didn't happen - twice

Well, after having one sale fall through , then having the solicitors make loads of cock-ups and us spending about 2 hours with a truck full of stuff and not owning a house, we finally managed to move.

We still didn't know if it was on or not right up until after lunch Thursday, and then moved Friday I had to phone 7 hire companies before I could find one that had a truck available - I was shitting it to say the least...

I want to get all sorted first, then I'm sure we can have a few beers. We've now got 3 spare bedrooms, so should be OK for sleeping - Just need some beds though, we've only got one

How much? Too fookin much £226k So don't expect to see me at many shows or meals/nights out this year

b19, pmsl, bit green isn't it
