ITH- agree Foxtons are a bit dodgy, but hopefully not so bad when they stand to get such a big commission. I'll let you know! I'm glad you're doing well too- so pleased about the way things are going with your H.
Al- I'm not sure what H did on Monday. He went home to his parents house at the weekend (I presume with the aubergine, but didn't ask). His Mum took him shopping on Saturday, but he was really dreading it.
I'm glad you like the house (if not the price tag!) Maybe if I do move in we can have a big party there. He did say after making the appointment "we can have great parties there" so I guess it's a given.
He is lovely... but I'm not hauling my nets back in He gets pursued by women ALL the time, so I'm differentiating myself by letting him chase me and being interesting. It is still platonic though, by which I mean no kissing etc, except that it's definitely not platonic in the sense that it's not like any friendship with a guy I've ever had. I think he needs to see me as a valuable asset, or a prize, rather than something anyone could have. And then he'll let me have parties and babies in the big and gorgeous house. Mwahahahahaha!
