Hi all, 
just popped on the site to let everyone know there will be no boxes for me this season. Very disappointing but I will try to keep up with all the boxes I know you all will have. Am surprised to see lots of you have activity already and want to wish you all the very best of luck. An especial big good luck to Matt with your super three hole boxes, so glad they have worked and well done for making such an excellent job of them - very clever 
.
Do hope everyone has kept well through this pandemic and please stay that way
My year has been one of frustration - we put our bungalow on the market and sold 3 times but each time the chain collapsed and hence our purchase along with it. We then decided to sell without having a purchase in progress so we weren’t let down again by any chain problems. We finally sold and we are now in temporary accommodation whilst we look for the right flat for us - easier said than done - first flat we liked we were gazumped on. Second attempt we had to abort as previous owners had taken out equity release on it and we were dealing with 4 different solicitors and managements etc, after 15 weeks of no progress we gave up. We are now trying for a third time but looking very unlikely to be in and settled in time to erect a bird box for this season. Just keeping everything crossed that this finally happens for us. Anyway that’s the gist of what has been happening.
Am going to be very envious of you all, but this was our decision - just didn’t expect such a nightmare
. Will watch you all with interest - GOOD LUCK
Sue
