Got the house insurance, £132 which seemed okay – rubbish guy on the phone. I phoned him back when his quote specifically stated “No accidental damage”, and he insisted that it did. No energy to argue so took it anyway.
Initial quote from Carpet Right was £2300 for both – seems okay? Bovis wanted £3700 so should be okay. Called into a carpet place in Caldicot and he finally rang back to say what a dope I was for measuring the houses!! After two days that was all he had to say, not an approx quote, just that I was stupid ;o) well…
Also finally arranged a joint account – aren’t I all grown up, never had one before. So joint houses and joint account – nearly all sorted.
