And we're back

Hope you've all been good for the last couple of days

Been gorgeous here, quite warm up there :lol: 8-) and very very dusty. We went places normal cars shouldn't really go :lol: and the car is now a fetching shade of sand, rather than dark blue :lol:

The one house we really like was built by the builder we know - although he's been a very naughty boy on lots of occasions, apparently. We've heard from real horror stories of malpractice etc :shock: but this house is now all legal. Phew.

Met some lovely lovely people, learnt lots of stuff too.

Bought 6 large cheeses at the market this morning - they are gorgeous :D so will be eating them for the next few weeks :lol:

Hopefully, Grumpy will be taking me out to dinner tonight - we only have tins of stuff in the house, nothing fresh.

Oh, and the first house we saw was disgustingly filthy :shock: :o :shock: So much so, it reminded me of a student house, after they'd left it for a month - but there were people living there :shock: :shock: :shock:

Thank you xx

I know I could use the hotels computer, but we were out really early in the morning, not getting back until late - gagging for a beer :lol: preferably cold - the water I bought in the shop early in the morning was almost hot enough to boil and egg by the end of the day :roll: :shock: :lol:

Hiya Ton, lovely to have you back :D :D

Sounds like you had good and interesting time 8-) Some people are such mucky pups, aren't they? We've moved a few times in the last ten years, and the differing standards in the many houses we've viewed have never ceased to amaze me :shock: :? :lol: Sorry if TMI but I've seen bathrooms where they hadn't even bothered to flush the loo :shock: :|

I've moved not some shockers too. And I'm still grateful that the last move wasn't one of them. I just can't understand how people can live like that

Did you see anything that you really liked?
