And more good news.

I have been offered a flat in a semi sheltered accommodation complex just a few hundred metres up the road. It is ground floor, so easier on my back problems, and is all-inclusive.

It has a community hub, café, games room and reading room. It has off-road parking and enclosed gardens for sitting out. Wi-Fi everywhere and digital keys. I have a viewing on Tuesday.

My decision is already made - I'm in. :D :D :D

That sounds like a great opportunity, WM! Hope you like it when you view it. Will the rent be much different from where you are now?

Osc, up front it will be more, but against that the heating and hot hot water is included, as is the Wi-Fi. I will not need a landline or broadband, so that's a saving, but the general service charge for the other stuff then comes in to play. Overall it is not much more than my private rent, but I will be part of a community rather than just a neighbour.

My friend Pam from aquafit lives in such a flat WM, it’s perfect for her and I’m sure it’ll be ideal for you! One thing she mentioned, hers is a fairly new building and as such, extremely well insulated!! She hardly ever needs the heating on :)
