We went to Pegwell Bay Nature Reserve for our walk. It is just along from the house we have been offered.
Sometimes things in life don’t go as planned. I kept our house move quiet because I didn’t want to tempt fate until we had signed for the property. We signed last week and then lunchtime today we had a phone call from the agent saying the farmer said he has changed his mind, something to do with the extended family. Funny that Mal had noticed it wasn’t his name on the contract but we think his fathers. Of course he pulled out before he had actually signed. The agent told us that he had never had this happen in the 30 years he had been letting properties. Erm, had to be us didn’t it?! The girl we had been dealing with at the estate agency was so upset but we told her it wasn’t her fault. S**t happens. Of course we gave our notice in where we are!
So a farmer, and his wife, hand shake means absolutely nothing. Years ago my dad warned me about farmers……..I should have listened. A good thing I believe in Karma!
I have to say the estate agent has been fantastic. They called later to say they had another cottage which other people had been shown but we were obviously in desperate need and also ahead of them as we had our references and credit check in place. Bless them they let us see it in the afternoon and rang before they left for the day saying we could have it. It is only for 6 months but better than living in Rhys’s garage….ha ha!! We can now look at leisure over the next 6 months. This one is next to Wingham Wildlife park, that will be good as they are bringing chimps back to the park. It literally is 2 minutes walk from the cottage. I’m feeling a little like a nomad at the moment!
