step one..

new house is on hold. now its up to the estate agents to value ours to see what we will get for partexchange. hubby is already panicking we wont get enough.

the great house debate

Hubby and i are really fed up with our poky box flat now. there's no room to even consider children. so yesterday we wandered up to the developer who was building the house we like to find out how it's going. they told us how prices were increasing with each build phase, so marcus and i have come to the conclusion we will be priced out of the one we like. so instead we looked at a couple of others. the top picture is a 3 bed terrace, but we'd go for the end one, and the bottom pic has an integral garage. next saturday we're going to look around both and see if any feel right.

come on in...

Nan (she doesnt like Nancy. thats her naughty name) checking out the neighbourhood.

cat diaries

are you Soulless?

I just had to share this book series i found with you.

the first is called Soulles, it's by Gail Carriger and is set in Victorian times.

It's a mix of steampunk and the supernatural.

And i read Soulless in 10 hours straight.

because it's been too long...

My derby name tshirt. The name still has to be registered but all others close to it come up as 'low', so i shouldnt have a problem.

Our little team has been going for 5 months now. We've had some press coverage, which has got our numbers to a more healthy point, and im starting to notice the change from so much exercise! As well as our regular training session, a few of us have started to attend a 'family' session at a local leisure centre, which has been great fun!

I've added a new navy hat to my etsy and relisted the ever popular grey.

And here's a flickr fave for the sake of it.
