So sad to be leaving! Does anyone know where we are moving to??? confused

Bellanonna Sat 03-Feb-18 00:15:16

Rat trap quickly discarded. Don’t want them to know we had a little “problem”.

Marydoll Fri 02-Feb-18 22:02:31

Quickly, packing before new owners change their mind.

Moneyboss Fri 02-Feb-18 18:51:14

Praying our move goes ahead next week

Old curtains and carpets left for new owners

No chance of moving, until house emptied.

Moving van arrived and parked in street, causing traffic congestion

Marydoll Sat 27-Jan-18 18:43:26

Leaving with a heavy heart.

Japanese Maple is overgrown
Just checking yellow pages for an arborist
waste time of time
telephones cut off!
who's turn was it to pay the bill??

Chewbacca Mon 22-Jan-18 23:36:58

I wouldnt bother trying Bella. They'll promise to call and not turn up. Or turn up; suck their teeth and tell you "it's a big job; won't be cheap". And you'll never see them again. I could write a book on this subject

Bellanonna Mon 22-Jan-18 23:34:09

House needs repainting. Must get some quotes.

Chewbacca Mon 22-Jan-18 22:34:52

Garage emptied of detritus of the past 20 years.

Fish pond dredged

SparklyGrandma Tue 31-Oct-17 13:11:31

Eventually we sort things out. Polishing main hall way again.

Scribbles Mon 30-Oct-17 19:11:57

Drains now sorted out. Thanks, Sparkly; that's got rid of the awful pong.smile

SparklyGrandma Mon 30-Oct-17 18:56:47

Caustic soda in drains...

SparklyGrandma Mon 30-Oct-17 18:56:12

Aah not selling good. Yes much better Dannirae it was a throat virus...

DanniRae Mon 30-Oct-17 16:40:18

Basically Sparkly we aren't selling - next door are! We want to impress any buyers so we get a better class of neighbour.
(Hope you are better now? flowers )

SparklyGrandma Mon 30-Oct-17 11:58:34

Are we selling? Haven't been here as have had throat thing.

Bellanonna Fri 27-Oct-17 17:15:41

Zipping out to Old Look right now Danni. Must impress the house viewers. I shall make sure I’m seen when anyone calls next door. I’ll probably go and talk to the gnomes, and they’ll think what a lovely friendly person I am!

DanniRae Thu 26-Oct-17 14:24:16

You are mistaken Bella about where I purchased my outfit. It was from 'Old Look' - sister store to New Look - and highly esteemed in my social circle. Surely you are familiar with this shop?
Regarding the flashing lights on the pampas grass - I feel this is an excellent idea and will definitely give the right impression to any prospective new neighbours. Well Done!!

Bellanonna Thu 26-Oct-17 13:32:52

eXcellent idea, Danni and of course you are free to wander about in your new Primark outfit, but I was rather thinking of a more upmarket appearance to the home, raising the tone a bit. Showing that we’re select people round here. Some pretty flashing lights on the front garden pampas grass, for example. Let me have a think.

DanniRae Thu 26-Oct-17 12:30:02

What? Do you mean our appearance being more select or the house? If it's us I won't take my new outfit back. I will stroll up and down the back garden so people viewing next door will be impressed. Is that a good idea do you think Bella?

Bellanonna Wed 25-Oct-17 23:13:46

Very true Danni. Perhaps we should impress with an rather more “select” appearance.
