Valedictory wave

[Gone West]

We have sold our house and are moving in the near future. There is a lot to sort out so won't be on here for a while but hopefully will come back at some time with questions and contributions. Good luck to all with their projects.

Are you moving on to do another self build?

[Onoff]

Good luck. Is your blog now dead?

 

Edit: Does this mean I'll have further to travel for freebies & bargains? ?

You may get lucky before he leaves ?

We’ve finally moved house and are happily ensconced in our bungalow making all the hassle worth it. It took nine months in the end to complete the conveyancing. The position of the bungalow and the views are amazing and exactly what we wanted. The sale, though not going through as quickly as we would have liked, did result in making an extra wadge of cash. The housing market was crazy during the time we were selling. There’s plenty of work to do here though so my taking it easy for the last couple of years has come to an abrupt end. We do miss our previous house but it’s nice to be away from the SE. I’ll soon be posting questions about our garage which is a mess and seems unsafe to me.

Thanks, I took my blog down because of the sale. It's a bit of a trek down here, 300 miles from Dover, but you're very welcome.

Traitor! ?

I hope the buyers of your old place were appreciative of the whole concept and effort that went into it?

Glad to see you got the cream tea the right way around.

Yes it is, but they say Cornwall starts at the three rivers.

Tamar, Tavy and Torridge.

Same as Bude is in Cornwall. TBH I copied your location but with my own twist .

Where we are a short stretch of the boundary is the River Deer.

Only just by a few hundred yards.

They seem to be. We had three lots of buyers who were all interested in buying it because it was a PH. It went to a bidding war in the end, which was nice for us, but crazy.

That is enough to still be corrupted if the wind blows just slightly from the East.
