When life immitates life

[rallamajoop]

My department at uni is going through a big reshuffle, so earlier this week I moved to a different office - no big deal, since the new office was pretty much just down the hall from the old one. Finished setting up by early afternoon, which was when I got a message from my sister to say she just got a call from the estate agents, saying that the owner is putting our house up for sale.

Since we're living in a fairly poorly-maintained little place that takes up barely half the block it stands on in a high-demand suburb, there's probably a very small chance the place won't sell, a small chance someone buys it as an investment property and lets the current tenants (us) stay, and a very good chance it'll be bought and bulldozed to the ground to make room for something huge, expensive and better matched to the rest of the neighbourhood.

So I guess I need to think about moving. Again. Only more so.

That sucks :( Hope you guys find a place in time if the situation warrants it.

It's pretty messy timing too, with Lisa between jobs and us not sure yet where we're going to want to move to. We're supposed to get 60 days warning if the place does sell, but they've already done a home open viewing (yesterday), so things may be moving pretty fast.

Oh, bollocks to this!

Good luck, my friend!
