Si and I got our house today! We went and picked up the keys and went round there this afternoon! It's SOOOOO exciting! 
Loads of work needs doing though, a bit more than we realised, but hey. It'll look amazing when we're finished with it! And I've got a garden of my own - finally!
Yippee!

Linz, that's VERY exciting. Yes, I SOOO know how you feel. Gee, and you have a GARDEN as well?! YIPPEE! It's an established garden? A flower garden? Any veggies or herbs?
What FUN! Yeah, we really need to see some pictures, Girlfriend. Please share.

It's an ickle garden (this is England, after all - it cost enough as it is!) but its mine!
Okay pics...hmmm...this doesn't usually work, but here goes.
All I've got so far is the one of the front of the house from the estate agents website. And the front of the house is very boring! But it's got off-road parking which is a big step up from where we are now!
I think I'll mow the lawn before I take picctures to show you guys - atm it's a mess!

Congratulations, Linz! A pretty little red brick house of your own!! And yeah I know how much off road parking is worth, living here in Manhattan! You see people circling the blocks for ever looking for a parking spot! The old joke is a couple was out for a walk and the guy sees a parking spot and says to his wife, "Quick, honey, lie down there. I'll go buy a car!"
As for the garden, all I have is a window box -- I am SO jealous!!

Yeah, I'm jealous too. We're getting a new house, but it's in a wooded setting with all ferns around, no garden at all. (Well, I guess you'd call it a fern garden, eh?)
Linz, I'm very excited for you! This is a real special time, having your own home. Do you have a lawn mower? (Just one of those hand jobbies will work fine on a small lawn; we have one, but of course we'll never use it now.)
I see it's two stories? How many bedrooms? And how old is it? Do you have a fireplace? And how about your neighbors? Have you met them yet? Will you have them in for tea? And crumpets?
What the hell are crumpets anyway? ...
