Well, I'm now in Nottingham during the week (although I might be able to work from home on odd days) so I'm having to manage the house sale from a distance with the estate agent leaving messages on my voicemail. The good news is that there's still interest in the house with lots of viewings booked, the bad news is that only one viewing is midweek, so that the Halifax rep shows them round, and the others are at the weekend - four on Saturday, and one on Sunday at 2pm. So that's both weekdays shot down dead, a particular nuisance on Sunday as I'd hoped to go out country walkies for some fresh air and exercise (two things lacking in traffic-choaked Nottingham when you're shacking up in a manky guest house) before driving back down South.
But needs must. I've not kept a count of viewings I've done so far, but it must be in excess of 20 at an average of 20-30 mins per viewing, with only two offers put in, both withdrawn. Pretty bloody time-consuming.
