RogerH Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Happy Birthday Ben, I think I know a song that will get on your nerves !!! Good to see you and Vicky last week. Sad about the situation that day though. Roger & Sue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Freer Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Thank you Roger, I’ve had a great day (so far....and the night is young/not happened yet). It was particularly enhanced by exchanging contracts on our new abode in darkest Devon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iain Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Hi Ben, Happy Birthday, and congrats to you both on the exchange, hope to catch up soon. Iain Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rod1883 Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) Happy Birthday Ben, it sounds like you are having a great day - we hope it continues into the evening. Congratulations to you both on your new home purchase. As I communicated to Vicky a little while back, a move 'back' South West always calls for me. We often look on line at properties in North Cornwall, North Devon or West Somerset, but yet to make any concrete moves toward making it happen.

Drewmotty Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Happy birthday Ben. We’re all looking forward to welcoming you both to North Devon. Have you got a date fixed yet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I fear ostracism early in our sojourn in Devon and may have to go undercover! Fortunately burning at the stake has been discontinued in the county I’ve been led to believe.....

tim hunt Posted September 8, 2020 Report Share Posted September 8, 2020 Me too Ben, a belated happy birthday and congrats on the exchange. Moving to Devon will of course somewhat increase your overall mileage for an RBRR so it's fortunate that 'no where's far in a TR'. Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
