Moving House
Well, I’ve been in my current place about a year, we’ve grown into it. It initially seemed so nice, having many rooms, places for different things. We’ve got a lot of stuff, study desks, computers, TV, fridge/freezer, washing machine, beds, draws, shelves, etc. We have all our own furnishings, curtains, bath mats, etc. It was also our space, not sharing with my former land lords, not that I had a problem with them, being life long friends and all. We where nicely settled, although we were contemplating a bigger place.
About a week ago I got a call from our letting agency, except it wasn’t, it was from the part of the company who deals with house sales. It turns out that they want to come and value the property as the landlord wants to know if it’s worth selling. So great, now we have the threat over our head that our house could disappear under out feet. Under UK law we have to be given two months notice if we have to move out, which we haven’t received yet, but my other half and I are of two minds, well actually we’re not, we want to move. Some of it is because we want to spite the landlord for even contemplating forcing us out, but we also want more space.
We’re looking at three tomorrow, basically looking for a two up, two down with kitchen, bathroom and maybe a cellar. One of the ones we’re looking at seems a bit modern, but ya never know. The first one we’re gonna see has a lot of space and claims to be recently decorated, double glazing and has a cellar.
Ahh we’ll see.
