We had more or less given up on the place as it seemed to be taking forever but as usual it was down to people not doing their job and giving us references and when we called them it was the usual "well we haven't heard anything from your agents" when we bloody well know they had! Anyway a firm kick up the butt from us eventually got everything sorted and our Landlord gave us the big thumbs up!!
We're both so excited, it means we won't really have a normal Christmas as we'll have a flat full of boxes but we don't care whatsoever!
I know it isn't going to suddenly make all our problems go away but it will ease the stress of living in London as it's killing me and hopefully OH's lungs will improve a little more as they aren't quite healing as fast as they should in the pollution of London which is a bit of a worry! Once the hassle of crowds and violence (we've recently had a stabbing and a mutilated body found on the common not two streets away not to mention several shootings

So, on the 8th January we'll be spending our first night in our tiny two bedroomed stone cottage, cracking open a bottle of Champagne we bought specially and beginning a while new life

Let's hope we don't freak out because it's too quiet lol

Oh and we have a garden... it's only a front garden as there is no back garden... actually there's no back door just the moorlands and then the sea lol but we're going to turn it into a big herb garden!
