It's Oh So Quiet ...

Not much chatter here, recently.

All I can say is: mum's the word.

And so peaceful until ..

Heard from friends of mine ...

Surprise #1: I got a 'phone call from the Estate Agent on Saturday. Apparently, a chap who had looked round our house recently wants to buy it. He made a cheeky offer, of course - still, there's a starter for negotiation.

Surprise #2: There was a knock at the door near Saturday lunchtime. There was an old friend. An ex-boyfriend of my wife's, actually. After the usual "blimey, how are you?" conversation, he said
"has the state agent called you?"
"Erm .. yes"
"It's me!"

Well, who'd have predicted that? Our house is to be sold to someone we know - and an ex at that! Small world ...
