Well, it looks like the previous posting about a new house to move into by the end of the month was somewhat premature! The agents phoned us up yesterday evening, after having spoken to the owners of the house (who live in Hong Kong), and apparently they've been planning to sell it in October. So there's no way we are going to move there for 4 months and we wonder why the agents didn't find this out in the first place!
We had thought that we'd been lucky to find somewhere so soon and to give the owners of our place the chance to move back in quickly. However, it doesn't look like being that way and at least we don't have the pressure to move yet - hopefully something else that's promising will turn up in the coming weeks, or months....
On the subject of property, we've also been notified this week that our tenants in Crowborough have decided to move out in July (so much for a 2-year rental!), but the agents are hopeful that they can get somebody else in quickly. Also Sue & Simon's flat in Tonbridge is under offer, so we're keeping fingers crossed on that one, hoping that it doesn't fall through!
We've had our first day of rain today for several weeks and it's been wet most of the day, which was unfortunate for Rebecca and Laura, who spent the day at Taronga Zoo. It was Rebecca's Year 7 trip out and they were accompanied by their 'peer-support' leaders from Year 11, which included Laura. It was wet for the whole of their visit, but it didn't seem to bother them that much and at least it must have been empty of tourists today!
