Good luck in finding some where its a great place to be
Thanks for that - we'll be popping in there for sure.
We're really looking forward to finding somewhere, then the search for a place to buy will begin! We're in Milan at the moment (where i work) but have been across to that area a few times now and we really like it. It was a toss up between Beaune and Carcassonne, but the weather and Pyrenees swung it for Carc.
I'll let you know how we got on in a couple of weeks.
Ric.
Hi Ric, yer couple of weeks are up!
How did you get on? Any luck???
Well now........
Sorry I didn't reply to this before there was too much stuff going on and I didn't want to jinx it. After looking at several places, some ok, some bad and some you wouldn't put your dog in we found a lovely village 20 minutes E NE of Carcassonne and whilst looking at a rental place there the agent also had one for sale which she showed us and we fell in love with it. Needs some work but not a huge amount.
So we bought it . Been a bit fraught lately with surveys, compromis, mortgage applications and paperwork etc but now we are waiting for a date to go and sign the Acte.
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet
Well done you How exciting ................ Good luck with it all
Its very scary but fun isnt it ? Holiday home or Home ?
You can join us for a coffee at cafe felix on the square in Carcassonne in May when I meet up with other forum members Johnzob, Chateu miaow, and Twinkle. Plus Bones if he gets over his friends are for softies moment ........... if you want to ?
Thanks Pads, it will be home, not holiday home. I'll still be working in Italy until something closer comes up but there's a good link (3 a day) between Milan and Girona with Ryanair. I do 4 days on and 4 off but that looks to be changing to 5/5 or maybe even 6/6, so I'll get plenty of time at home. My wife will be there full time.
Most exciting prospect I think will be getting our cat out of storage. Poor sods been there since August. Of course I mean cattery....!
Coffee I can do - better be up to Milanese standards though.......LOL
