Good location, and everything we wanted: garage, basement, rooms big enough to swing a cat in (not literally, of course). Well, 1: the people were nearly impossible to get hold of to make an appt. to see the place. 2: Once I finally did get hold of someone, she was about half rude on the phone. 3: Made the appointment, she sent her son to show the house, and he was late. 4: Even though the previous tenants had pets, now they're disallowing them.
The inside of the house was nice too. Original woodwork, nice almost finished basement, good sized bathroom, and closets!! Coat closet, linen closet, pantry. But the no pets and their really bad attitudes was a deal breaker for us.

Hope something comes your way soon.

They seem to gather all the information they can on a particular subject(as in person) and then try to build an essay including all that information. Did they learn their journalism technique in grade three?

A similar comment was made in The Times newspaper earlier this week (was that you) - valid point, though ....

We decided to take the other car, as we did already have an appointment with the garage for tomorrow for its yearly checkup. I really want that auris hybrid on days like these!
2. I left my keyboard and mouse in my car. You know, that one that is sitting home on my drive way. Now I have to use the keyboard and mousepad on my laptop...
It will turn out one of these days, I'm sure...

Tomorrow will be brighter ...
