We haven’t had any confirmation that our buyers have signed yet, but we presume they did this afternoon as neither our estate agent or solicitor has heared anything at all. Fingers crossed that all is well and we can exchange contracts tomorrow morning.

We had a bit of a surprise earlier when we discovered that the chain was longer than we’d previously been advised and further up the chain they were asking for a later completion date…argh! Luckily within the hour that had been rectified and we were back to the original target. As Vicky put it earlier, another restless night waiting.

Our solicitor phoned earlier to let me know that our buyers will hopefully be signing their contract at around 3:30 tomorrow afternoon… once that is done the entire chain will be in a position to exchange contracts and Operation Red Dragon can continue at full speed. Providing we exchange this week, our moving date is a week Friday (see the countdown in the column to the right…). I went a bit mental at the weekend packing stuff up. When I get home this weekend I’ll need to unpack my important documents folder containing all our insurance policies and various banks details and things, we’ll have a lot of things to cancel, move, advise of new addresses blah blah blah….. but for now, the clock counts down for the next few tense hours while we keep our fingers crossed that all will go well. Come on time, hurry up.
