Roof over our heads alas!

We are nicely settled into our 1 bedder at South Croydon - leafy suburb and less of the london crowd. We moved in on Sat 4pm, 13 October 2007. It was such a joy to have a place we can call home.

Thank God for enabling us to secure this unit because someone else had expressed interest in it just one step before us. They pulled out in the end and the agent rang us to say that we could have the place. We were overjoyed BUT confused at that stage because we had already placed a deposit at another property (very average) in our desperation (our temporary accomodation was due to end on the Friday 12 October). We decided to forego the deposit at the 2nd property and go with the 1st property. The 1st property was in much better condition and fully furnished too (leather sofa, dining, bed, wardrobes, kitchen utensils, plates, bowls, wine glasses..) and given that the owner had been living in it, the place was in good shape.

We were without a roof for friday 12 October, and checked into a hotel at Richmond hill for the night. Had a tough few days transporting our luggage by tube, train, bus and foot! But we are very glad its done and dusted.
