We had some rain first thing , and it was very overcast all morning , but it’s sunny at the moment ….so cue another uncomfortable night .🙄🙄🤣🤣🤣I didn’t go for a walk today either , cos people kept texting me to say I was expecting a delivery .🤣🤣🤣🤣

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 ain’t going to make a very big profit ….145 , plus 15 , then there are all the fees ….

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)...

Yes, it’s definitely a buyers market at the moment ….if they can get a mortgage !

you could postpone the bath, as you don't want to miss a Birthday delivery

and you MUST NOT run down the stairs!!!

They’ve done a decent job …..but wow …double the budget 😱😱😱😱

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

All that work for 5k 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
