Who are these People?

Well the weekend came and went, we had our open home!!! Did the manic bit again. We started getting the house ready for our unwanted guests! We were both laughing and carrying on...Both thinking no one would show up, as per usual for the Gold Coast! Still we prepared all the rooms and the yard, vacuumed the pool at a hundred miles an hour. Then we headed to the garage with the dogs...to stay out of the way. Played my music real loud, and joked about being jinxed and chances of selling , being ZERO!!!!! Both of us holding hands and fingers up with the loser symbol stretched tall........... then cracking up uncontrollably. Well as soon as it began, it was over . Holy crap all that work I m exhausted.............

One of the stragglers wandered into the garage and raved about Maddy (our red poodle), yeah, well that didn't score any points with us, and don't think we are negotiable....we are so NOT negotiable...and YOU ARE SO NOT GETTING MADDY!!!!!

Anyway, it was a good day, and a bad day.. Seven couples came through.....most went unnoticed except for one prospect..... The lady known as madame X came through twice before and news had it she was hot to trot! for the Queenslander perched on the hill! A bit weird her husband lived overseas 10 months of the year and she had been given the task to buy the new home. This was her third visit, and this time she brought her sister and brother in-law for their expert opinion.

When they first arrived I said hello and tried to muster up any kind of conversation, with the old bloke (as you do). Nope! not even a smile, not even a twinge or a blink! I think they had made a pact, that under no circumstance would they draw eye contact with us, or fraternise...and they didn't.. We were hiding in the study for a good while, and I kept sneaking out to listen, poking my ear around corners with out being seen, so funny. I saw him bending over scratching the edges of tiles, wood, opening drawers and doors, hoping to earn his stripes as the BEST friend ever! he was everywhere, he was relentless. Oh no! don't touch the bathroom cupboard, dear, the handle fell of... damn! I was going to super glue it on . lol hehehehe, I never made it in time...

Then I sneaked out the back way, to head to the pool area to pull the vacuum out before they got there. Here he was climbing up the wall to see a bit of wood I replaced.. 2cm x 1 metre. Who is this guy? What the? I quickly caught him by surprise, ha ha, eye contact and he actually turned away from me. I laughed and yelled friendly " the beam was just cracked"! He walked away with his head down..This is so funny!!!

Anyway,the agent reported this guy and his wife rubbished the place for 30 minutes to the woman looking seriously at it, and then the old bloke's wife said,

"This house is so overpriced, that it is not funny!" The agent defended it of course.
Let me at him !!

A few days have gone by and the good news is we have 3 couples interested in the house...
2 seeing their bank..... Hey guess what? the most serious contender is that woman who had the old bloke with her!!!!!!! Evidently, she is seeing her bank and probably putting in an offer! Oh my God!!!!!!! it was all a game! are you feeling it?.....I bet they rent him out!

Kerry is here saying, I am jinxing it, talking about it.....and I so want to do that, NOT! Who is this person I'm married to?
to be continued..........
