IT'S OURS!

SOLD!!!!
It's ours! 10:19 this morning, John's mobil phone rings, as we are driving through Chalabre center, having been to the box factory there and bought 20 cartons. It's Mikaël, our estate agent. 'Are you sitting down', he asks. He continues, telling us we own the house, the money was sent to the notaire yesterday afternoon, the notaire signed everything, and called Mikaël this morning. WOOHOO!!!!! In other news, he also has the plans for the new septic system, dropped off yesterday. We can pick them up when we pick up the house keys.

I ALMOST CAN'T BELIEVE IT!

  2. Right now we're trying to arrange the electrician, but I think next week - the best week for us - might be a week when he's going to be in England. But we'll see. we'll; want to go to the house some time soon to arrange for the gaz to be checked out and turned on at least. I'll take lots of photos then. When I was looking at the photos I first took of the house I saw that the date on them was Nov 18. So it took us 6 months and 9 days to make this work. I'll be taking lots of new photos when we're there, maybe next week. for now I'll post some photos of what walls we're going to be stripping and painting. I've never before so much looked forward to stripping wallpaper!
