Yesterday we received a huge pack of information from our solicitor - contract, transfer forms, deeds, guarantees, maps etc - very exciting! We've signed all we need to sign and are getting it back to them today, so it looks like we might be able to move into our lovely little nungalow early in the new year - very exciting! It was very cool seeing the maps of the original land before the road was built (in 1930ish) and the names of previous owners. And seeing the price that the sellers paid for the place just over 2 years ago, it seems like we got a good deal! :)

Yesterday we had our Student Marketing Christmas meal out, which was good fun. The people I work with are a nice bunch, and it was good to spend time with them in an 'out of the office' setting.

Not long until Christmas now - it officially starts for us at 5pm tomorrow! Tomorrow night we're off our with some of Ben's ex-work mates, and on Saturday night it's his sister's 21st birthday party - in a tent in their garden! We've been told there will be outdoor heaters, but I'm taking the full works - gloves, hat scarf...! Should be good fun. Can't wait to have 17 days off - I definitely need it...
