If I say so myself, the build calender for the coming year is possibly one of the best we have had for a while. Lots of variety, with something for everyone.

A good year for Anniversaries that have given us some brilliant Super SIG projects that I suspect will be well used.

I am looking forward to them all. Or should I say was.

We have decided to sell up and move house and we all know what that means,,,,

We moved nearly two years ago.Still doing DIY on the house,which eats into my model making time.
 
We moved a year ago and I am still around a year away from having an available workshop. As for time, not much chance of that for a while either!!!
 
ive just had to stop all building!....we move 150 miles north a few days before xmas!:eek:

Well the madness is setting in. The estate agent is now waiting for the call to say that the photog can come and take pictures...

and the surveyors to give the building the once over and do a energy report.....So its time to start packing away and tidying up (all the time!!!).

Then there is the bathroom that is still waiting for the plumber; (me). The loft needs re-insulating so we are also waiting for him,(Me). Then there are the light sockets and the odd wall socket that needs changing, Guess who.... Other than that no worries. I have after all twelve days to do it in.....

Must be mad Ian. Did it in March phew! Hope you are lucky five weeks from agreeing to move & we parted company with the abode.

Should start a poll thing. The advert on BBC for TV licences says we on average have moved 8 times. We are bang on & no more except heaven ! O hell what am I saying ?

My sympathies Ian we moved in 2009 and it took us two years to settle in and I wasn't into the hobby then I think it would have done me in if I was
 
Moving house is one of the most stressful things we do in our lives.

Good luck, I hope that it goes well and easy for you.

Cheers

I take it you don't have children Steve? :)

Good luck Ian, it'll be over and done in no time and you'll be wondering what all the fuss was about:)

I was lucky the last time I moved, I did it all in two trips as I left all the main items in the old house for the daughter.

I dont do diorama!

Just discovered that the main distribution board is not "Up to spec". (read illegal). Dam EU and their constant rule changes...

Ian: If it doesn't have a suitable space for a man-cave dont go!

We have found a place we both like, out in the country and 200 yards from the coast!

Its a bit smaller than the house we are in now but there is loads of room for a new shed in the 1800m2 garden....

We just need to sort out the "fun stuff" with the bank....

LOL Carina (SWMBO) has already said that the garage would make a great gym. So a new shed for me and a carport looks like a dead cert...

you can't beat being out in the styx mate, whether it be a solitary small holding or a village house ... it's much better than the hussle and bussle of a big town or city.

Glad you've found somewhere, wishing you luck that all goes well financially and in the move

Well it's a house we both like, so I hope we get it as well. The estate agent recons ours will be sold by April!!! Just hope that a chain dont break!

Over here houses in the country are as cheap as chips as no one wants the hassle of driving to work anything over an hour is frowned upon here.

The prices are silly as well. For the price of our current house we could buy 5 in the country. All bigger as well.

One we looked at, but walked away from had four and a half acres of land and was still cheap (595,000.00 krone. if you are interested). There was just to much needed doing to it.
