Yip, press on with the plan. I've yet to see Sandi2 be wrong. This is why I suggested a place for you and all the kids. Get that sorted even if they have to share a room for the forseeabke future. She's on her own mate and she needs to realise that.

Hi Bud

The place I'm seeing first tomorrow is at Murrayfield and it has tow big double bedrooms. If need be, it'll be a squeeze, we'd all pile in.

I'd like some info in the morning about prices etc. if you don't mind. No worries if you can't.

I think Ghost might need extra help in the next few days. Where's wonka?

Now, if you were in a naughty frame of mind, you might be saying to your W......well, I'm not planning to occupy that seven seater couch alone!!

Seriously, I'm impressed with your practical frame of mind and I agree that getting somewhere the kids can stay - even if in bunk beds & sharing a room - is key. Your W may be spinning for a while yet, or go back to her original frame or mind, or something else...who knows!

But your plan and current actions to get yourself and the kids sorted is a good one. Best of luck with your property search. xx

Morning Huddy
Quite a bit of data here. Going back two years. I've included the dates they first came on the market and when they came back on the market. Should be able to gleen some intel from this:

mysql> select creation_date,last_live_date, area_display, price, bedrooms from property where area_id = 1187 and sale_or_rent = 'rent' and DATE(creation_date)>=DATE_SUB(NOW(),INTERVAL 2 YEAR) and bedrooms = 2 order by creation_date;

Morning NDY

Right, I think I understand that data. The price I'm looking at is good/competitive for the area. As you say, it's only got to made liveable, not home. Thanks for that detail. If you're available next week, I could always pop over to the western metropolis for a couple of beers as way of thanks!

Morning Sotto

I did think about saying 'who says I'm gonna be on that setee on my own', but I decided against it. My W is still in 'I don't know what to do mode' and still falling, so, I've got to press on. Homelessness doesn't appeal!

Well, it's liveable. I have to register an interest in taking it. It's a bit old inside, but it's comfortable, in size terms. I still have that nag in the back of my mind - what if she changes her mind? I know I shouldn't, I should just plough on.

NDY - I have arranged a GAL activity for the following weekend. I can nip over to Glasgow one day after work for a couple of hours if that's OK. Let me know.

Definitely mate. I'll let you know my schedule.

On the flat. Lots of landlords are quite happy to let you decorate the place. As long as you stick to neutral colours and don't remove any fixtures you should be ok. One bit of advice. Get it in writing. I've personal experience of family that rented and received verbal permission to decorate. It was only when they moved out that the landlord decided to change their mind and kept hold of the deposit. And this couple were only 22 at the time. So watch out for that.

But apart from that as long as it's clean and warm it'll do until you get something permanent which is good. I myself have put in an offer for a house. Hopefully in the next few days I'll know if I've been successful or not.

No worries.

Have made an offer for the lease. Just waiting for a reply back. If It's not a go-er, no worries. I will tell W tonight and see if I get a reaction.
