We signed contracts (subject to finance) this morning, & expect to hear of the buyers bank’s approval by 20th December. (They had ‘pre-approval, just waiting for ‘formal’ approval now). Settlement date 23rd January, at which time we will become homeless!
you're not a fan of christmas because you moved away from your family? I dont get it? Ive spent a few christmas's with just me, mum and dad and i wouldnt give it up:)Quote:

Not a big fan of Xmas apart from the catchup of mates for a few drinks but that looks uncertain at the moment.
Mind you lunch should be good as there will be Tassie Scollops ,Tassie brown and rainbow trout caught by yours truly on the menu, and washed down with some Hellyers road scotch. So allround a quiet one for me.
