House update

A quick update on the house purchase, since I know a few people have been wondering.
- all the legal stuff went through fine
- the bank is poised and ready to give us mortgage money when we sign on the dotted line
- we still don't have our money for the deposit, which was meant to be transferred from the Nationwide last week. They don't seem capable of getting in touch with us to clarify important details; we resolved one problem on Friday morning after I phoned them, and I was assured that they now had everything they needed, but the money still hasn't budged.

But we are still scheduled to get the keys on this Friday, August 15th!
