Ok so now I've reeled you all in with an intentionally obscure title, I really just want to be shamelessly, bouncingly, Cheshire-cat grinningly excited about the fact that today, after three irritatingly long months of wrangling, finally bought my house!
That is to say that I transferred the funds so still have to wait for comletion. But I still think this is a very good excuse for a bottle of wine.
Yay for me!

I'm such a mixture of jealous and happy for you right now. Please tell me there's a hopscotch patch in your new pad??  x This post is sprinkled with fairy dust, not anger. Read it again if you don't believe me. | |

Aw well done! It's fab having your own house. To put your key in the lock and know that it's yours is a wonderful feeling. An no, it doesn't mean you will have to be all growed up now.....  | |

Addendum: because my most incompetent solicitor couldn't get a certain piece of information from the most unhelpful vendors solicitor, I couldn't get a completion date. Becuause I couldn't get a completion date I couldn't set up my insurance. And now, I can't complete cause my insurance isn't in place. This could set me back two more weeks!!! | |

Things nearly always go wrong when you buy a house. Mine was very straightforward with no problems and it still took 3 months which apparently is a quick sale. It can drag on for months. Never mind, it will all be so worth it when you get inside. | |

Ah well, there is a grown up side to it all, I suppose. Buying a house is one of the most frustrating, stressful things but you'll get there and it'll seem like your castle more than ever .... and wendy house. I think everyone should like everybody ..... Andy Warhol | |

Now THAT is a good idea! Completion taking place on Friday. Woop! | |

The only downside I can see is using up a perfectly dungeon-worthy basement. It's a tough call! (I'd suggest both, but wiping bodily fluids off of 4379 hollow plastic balls I suspect is outside the realms of even most 24/7 Ds'y relationships). |
