THERE ARE ENCOURAGING...

... signs that our sale may be nearing completion. That's absolutely great! The not so great bit, refers to yesterday's rather oblique blog post. We discovered that our sellers are categorically refusing to move out until the end of July, despite knowing our situation and the fact that the very next day we are going on holiday. We had the conversation with them weeks ago, but yesterday they really dug their heels in and refused to budge. They HAD said they would do what they could to move out as early as possible, but now they appear to have changed their minds about that. So it looks like we will be needing to find a temporary home for a short period. Typically it's holiday season and everywhere is going to cost an arm and a leg. I still need access to a decent kitchen too because of my Centurion work which I do not want to lose. Obviously there's still some way to go in terms of exchange and completion here and I can't see that happening for a fortnight or so, but I just know we're going to be homeless for a few days. I was so furious yesterday and Charles was practically incandescent with rage, but there's absolutely nothing we can do about it. Moving house? Never ever again.
