we had rumbling thunder 1st thing and some rain but its clear and sunny now.
but thankfully not humid like it was.

LOL...how nice
good idea to get out in the garden after this
I like early evenings in the garden when its been warm
They ainβt going to make a very big profit β¦.145 , plus 15 , then there are all the fees β¦.
yes agent said it was a sellers market round that time...
its not now...2 sales have fallen through recently on our estate (I thought they were priced too high though)...

he wants 210 though and in a sellers market,??
a good profit for not a lot perhaps?
Iβve got another delivery coming this evening , apparently β¦..I hope itβs before or after my bath.π€£π€£π€£

true. not easy to get a mortgage on the rubbish wages now ...and the short contracts many have...
@*mollie* posted:true. not easy to get a mortgage on the rubbish wages now ...and the short contracts many have...
Plus interest rates are still a bit high

you could postpone the bath, as you don't want to miss a Birthday delivery
and you MUST NOT run down the stairs!!!
Theyβve done a decent job β¦..but wow β¦double the budget π±π±π±π±

yes higher than they were, but appartently this 5% is nearer to the norm than the very low rates they did have recently ...
the finish is awful
no wonder they only got 1 offer from 20 viewings
