eeeek!

So we've had an offer accepted on a house! It seems as though the mortgage application is going OK, that is our FA (Financial Advisor not Football Association!) hasn't told us of any brick walls hit yet. This all seems very grown up. Walking around the area when we went to view the house it struck us how very suburban it all was. Can we really live there? Will we really not be awoken at 03:00 in the morning by pissed people shouting/wanting there keys back because they have to go to work in the morning? No more suspicious exchanges of money under our living room window? I've almost got used to Chavs shouting at the top of their voices down the street! Mmmm maybe not.

I think marriage and buying a house are meant to be two huge life events. Of course marriage was a massive life event, but it was easy. I love my wife very much, and I wanted nothing more than to marry her. Buying a house is a massive financial commitment though. I'm sure Abi will still love me if I don't have a job, or am very ill for a long time. However, there are more serious financial repercussions to these situations when you have mortgage repayments to make!

Anyway, I'm jabbering on (mmmm, interesting. google. It seems the spell check in Chrome likes the spelling of "jabbering" but not google! Go figure). Too much for the two people who read this blog. So I shall end with a quote I read on the Guardian website today: "Tesco: Never will you seen such a hive of scum and villainy!"
