Woo-hoo!

Our contracts have arrived in the post today! I've read everything through twice and everything seems ok. So now we have to sign everything, some signatures being witnessed, and post it back to our solicitor. Then the sellers have to sign some other things. Then we have to agree our moving date and give the solicitor the best part of £1000. And start putting things in boxes.

I am terrified.

Better get going and break that other ankle, or you might have to help do the moving boxes...

Please don't encourage her.

We decided to get a surveyor to make some checks on a wall that's been rebuilt without building control approval at some point in the past. Just to make sure the house is not going to fall down...

So I reckon that gives me about a month to incapacitate myself in some way. Hopefully less drastic than a broken ankle this time.

I'd be happy to oblige.

We decided, on reflection, just to sign the damn papers*. So we're just waiting for the sellers to sign. Hoping to move by the 20th - whether that's feasible or not, we'll have to wait and see.

*Actually, a more considered decision than this. But, you know...
