August seems to have finished. What's been happening since the last blog?
Decisions, decisions
August has come to an unexpected end. We were up in Godmanchester for Kate's birthday a few weeks ago, and spent the Bank Holiday weekend doing odd jobs around the house. On Saturday we saw another property, and promptly put an offer in. Now we have two offers accepted! We hope to drop the first property soon (the seller has been rubbish, and this property is nicer) and crack on with buying and installing ourselves in the new one.
On Monday we had a nice lunch with Jo's friends from Harpenden NCT, and their husbands and babies, and on Tuesday we sorted out the mortgage with the nice people at HSBC (it's like the NatWest adverts, and nothing like the Halifax adverts) and spent the afternoon in IKEA looking for a rocking chair.
The damageToday, Tim lost his trainer to a long-running rip (see picture). From memory, these were the trainers that completed the 2007 marathon, so they've done very well!
Euan is experimenting with his food, and is now quite happy in his highchair, with messy hands.
This weekend, the Premiership rugby season starts, and Granny & Grandpa Reid are coming over to visit. We might even let them babysit, if they're good!
We really ought to start planning our trip to Australia. No idea what to pack, or what Euan's going to eat on the plane!
