We need some good news

Got our solicitor's bill a few days ago.  His estimate had been £750 for the barn and £500 for the extra land.  The bill was over £2000 for the barn (OK. he did have to sort out the boundary dispute) and £400 for the land (which is wasted money since that deal faltered).  Double!

We thought the architect had given us some joy, producing a sketch that I sent off to the planners today ahead of our meeting with them tomorrow.  We got an instant response from the planners that they 'could not support' our proposal to put the kitchen where the block lean-to is at the moment.  So that looks like it's back to square one.  The architect will try to come up with an alternative layout tonight, but it seems like we've come full circle back to a layout like the original approved plan.

Then I got a puncture last night, so got home even later than normal, and today had to replace the 2 rear tyres on the Audi (they were close to the limit) costing £265.

Something good has to happen soon.
