We very probably will after we settle down a bit. :biggrin: Have to start off renting as we are renting here. I think it's great that you built your current house. I saw the pics when you posted the link up and you have a lovely home. Have you had a buyer yet?

 

Thanks for the compliments :wubclub:

We are 5 viewers in but no offers yet, another viewing tomorrow..........................

well after a rocky start today we have actually made some pretty good progress. One car full of rubbish to the tip, the car is loaded for another trip tomorrow, we have several bags of clothes to go to the charity shop and the house is clean and tidy. We have also started putting stuff for shipping into one corner of a room and theres not much there yet at all.

Hope you get your buyer soon. I'm sure the right person who will be able to come along with the right price will show up soon.

I love watching a room transform. It's very satisfying. :cute:

I really, really, really hope that today some docs and hubby's passport arrive in the post! Pleeeeeeeeaaaaasssseee! :yes:

 

Fingers crossed for you hun. I'm desperately hoping that my Aussie passport forms that I completed on line and requested to be posted (our printers not the best and would hate for them to saying wasn't up to standard!!!) will arrive ASAP. Especially as I have just over 1wk till my app, and need them signed by a friend :-/

Thank yoouuuuu :cute: waiting is so frustrating! I ordered our Aussie passport forms as well and they were very swift, got them within a couple of days, so you should be right. Thankfully, hubby's mum is a legal secretary so we were able to ask one of her solicitors to do our forms. Booked our appointment for passport renewals for the 12th...Can't wait! Just waiting for my family name registration doc to come back from Perth BDM. oooooh the tension of waiting for the postman! lol

Ooh I'm the 9th.... We could have caught up otherwise. Well it's been a week now and they're still not here! Saying that our friend is stuck overseas at the moment, but hopefully back in the next few days so he can sign them. Nothing in the post again today so I've treated myself to a ....... Bum bag, lol. Never thought I'd be. Owner of one, let alone a proud owner! It'll keep me excited about checking the post anyway :0) and also ordered the girls bits for on the plane.

Today I have scanned our police certificates from Dubai and emailed them to our CO and now am off to walk the dogs and then more painting......SO bored of painting ....zzzzzzzz

 

I officially HATE painting! Two rooms to go then I'm done. Why on earth do they put Matt paint in a rental!!! Stupidly I put up some pictures for the girls using blu tac (white tac) and its left oil marks. Also they only had Matt paint in the ensuite so here's lovely marks all over the walls from the steam :-/

a few more bits ticked off this morning, mainly phonecalls that needed doing. Phoned TV license and they made absolutely no sense at all, pay another months direct ebit and get 3 months refund, dont pay another month and get 6 months refund but we cant watch tv for the last 3 weeks we are in the country.mmmmm i wonder what i would rather have, we rarely watch tv anyway and im sure the tv will be gone before then, off to cancel the direct debit...lol

 

also got my form for freezing my nhs pension, and sorted out final payment for my computers through work scheme

 

couple of hours left of the morning then back to work today, only 7 weeks left at work and 8 and a half till we fly :)

Just had a little panic so have requested 3 blank forms to be sent out. Hopefully one lot will arrive as I'm not changing my appointment after already buying the train tickets!

 

Hope your bits arrive today.

 

As for the pun........ No comment :-P

Today, so far I have made 2 of 3 important phone calls. Northwood are now seeing us tomorrow morning instead of Wed, and a letter I needed for the bank is being typed and emailed to me this afternoon. There was no WDU this morning so not very happy about that... Will have to settle for Aussie Master Chef this afternoon, it's way more exciting than the UK one!!

 

Going to have some lunch now, beans on toast... Yummy
