Selling houses...

On Friday we got the disappointing news that our buyers had pulled out of buying our house. Why it took them 8 weeeks to come to this decision  we dont know. But onwards and upwards as they say and after adding a few new photos, the house went back on the market on Saturday. Fingers crossed for viewings and new buyers so we dont lose the house in Sheffield.

Mark spent Saturday cleaning the decking, Sunday oiling the decking and Monday painiting the fence and shed. I've been cleaning the windows and the house. Boring work, but has to be done and if it gets the end result...

On a good note, we've had some glorious weather and spent a lot of the weekend in the garden, where we had a tea party for Vera's stuffed toys. A long visit to the play ground. Vera is getting braver and braver and watches the older boys and attempts rope tunnels, steep climbs etc.

On Sunday afternoon, we met up with Ana, Mark, cutie pie Ariane (nearly six months!) and Ana's mum. We spent some time in the Orchard in Grantchester and then went to the beer garden of a local pub. It seems that everyone in Cambridge was out and about at the weekend!

We finished up the long Bank Holiday weekend with a BBQ and Vera was devouring half a cob of sweetcorn. Her absolute favourite!
