Well, as long as the bloke says yes.
Suggested to the missus that we gave up this renting lark and look for somewhere proper to live.
Saturday we trundled into a few estate agents and took some info. Booked one appointment for today. Went to look, it was crap. Phoned up about a house round the corner and 20 minutes later I was making an offer on the damn thing.
Of course I blagged it and told them we'd arranged a mortgage and stuff, so as soon as we left I legged it home and got on the blower. Within 30 mins I had a hefty wadge of cash offered to me now I'm just waiting on the vendor to say whether he accepts my offer. Obviously I offered WELL below the asking price, cos thats what you do innit?
Funny how things can change so quickly in a day...
God, I'm getting old.

Wise. I'm still living with my parents. I was just about to start looking for "our own place" with my fiancee when our relationship fell through. So that put an end to the house hunting - just as well it happened when it did, otherwise I'd be saddled with a debt I couldn't afford to pay. So far, I've found it much cheaper and far more convenient to stay with my parents.
To all intents and purposes, it's as good as my own place, because my parent's don't really care what I do, as long as I show them and their house the respect I'd show my own.

Under my current wages, and the house prices in Hertfordshire...I should be able to afford my own place in 42 years.

Grown up stuff certainly is mental.
Well, day 3 didn't go as planned.
Basically I will know our fate by midday tomorrow. Its not looking good so far as the original buyer seems to have got her butt (lol wookie) into gear over buying. She's got until 12pm tomorrow then I will step in with my mighty sword and kick some house buying a$s.
Still, I'm knocking back plenty of booze in anticipation.

(I know its a little off topic but)..
I was in a music store and I was in a queue of about 20 people when the guy behind me was explaining to his female friend the plots of the dvds that were on offer, then their conversation started to get weird when she was talking about her 'rabbit'
I think the word rampant was used somewhere in there...
she quickly shut up when she realised that everone in the queue could hear what she had been saying.

Oh I know exactly what "The Rabbit" is, trust me.
Good luck Craw, hope it comes off exactly as planned. Grown up stuff is scary, no?
