Thursday

My parents caught an early flight today to view a couple of properties with us. We had some time to put in, so we wandered around the Ulster Museum, Botanic Gardens, and the Tropical Ravine.

Later on we had to walk 30 minutes from the train station to the houses, which was when the rain really came down. The first viewing was at 3:30, while the second one was at 4:30. We expected the first house to be quite nice but it had severe damp problems which were not evident in the photos. The viewing was over in around 10 minutes, so we had to wander around the area in the pouring rain for 50 minutes.

The second house is one R and I have viewed previously. It is so much nicer! Hopefully we might get this house but we'll see.

My parents are also leaving tonight. I think they're going to be exhausted when they get home!
