why do I always speak too soon..??!

So...yes I spoke too soon again! Out of ALL the millions of estate agents in London...yes I pick this one! Long story...its late, am covered in all beer and cleaning fluid and other wonderful All Bar One bits, so it is not the time for a long complicated story...ie the actual one! So an abbreviated one...our estate agent, as I found out this morinng when I turn up with the holding deposit, 'departed' the company today, not voluntarily! SO...turns out that our house is, in fact, not not the price we believed it was; and cannot be held until August! SO!...an awfully nice Australian called Rory sorted it out...in that we can still have it for the original price, BUT..we have to move in at the end of July! Thats - 2 weeks time - and during soulinhtecity..aaarghh! Also - means me paying 2 months rent for when Im not going to be able to live there (Panama) which is just a bugger! So ya....all good! Poor Sarah got back from her holidays today to find things in  rather different state to when she left! Its all fine though...we're STILL excited about our lovely flat...and what would life be without colourful characters such as Brandon the estate agent ey?!
Anyone wanting a room in London for the month of August....let me know!!! xXx

long time no blog

Hello..I have returned after abit of an absence I know! Good news....whilst the search for an interesting, stimulating and experience giving, paid job continues..and continues...we've nearly found a house! YAY! Finalising monday I hope, so unless some disaster befalls us between now and then, it should all work out. Its so cute...a little 3 bedroomed flat in a terraced house in Kennington...with a real working coal fire (which I promise I wont try to light too often when alone in the house!) and a tiny roof terrace! We're very happy and very excited...news of THE house warming party of the year to come, watch this space!
