This was a pleasant read first thing in the morning! haha..

Well, the offer has been placed so we will see where it gets us. Maybe we should have gone lower, who knows

...How did you guys feel when you were looking to buy your first home? I didn't really look, Cav.......I was given a few addresses by a friend who helped me get the loan....drove by one and didn't care for the location, although the house was fairly decent. Second one was much smaller, but well ...

... We've made an offer £6,000 short of the asking price (offers over £180k) and the estate agent said there have been 2 higher offers from people who are also first time buyers. Not sure if it's bull or not but it's not likely we're get it anyway. Not sure how I feel now. It's the first house ...
