Great Weekend at my sisters housewarming

This weekend Nicky and I went down to Bournemouth for my sisters housewarming party. Heidi and Ben have almost finished doing up their new house. Ben has a full size pool table in his back garden!

All my family were there pretty much including mum and dad with Bella. I drank my first cider in about 15 years, and it was ok, not been sick on it for a long time so its drinkable again :-) Thanks Heidi and Ben for a good time.

Aurelia also introduced me to Midlake The Trials of Occupanther, which I am enjoying at the moment.

Bad News and Good News

Well, our surveyor is decent, seems like he's good at his job. The good news is he says they will probably not need to dig our block and beam concrete floor up, which means it cold be as little as three months until we get all sorted. The bad news is we definitely need to get out until that time :-(

We are still enjoying having our own little castle, with a decent sized garden for a new house, and intend to come back while in our rented accomodation to keep things ticking over in the garden.

At least this house move is a smaller scale one, as e can leave loads of stuff upstairs, which will be sealed of while it becomes a building site.

Oh, why is nothing ever simple in life?
