    That looks so bumpy! Dropped kerbs are bad enough.

    Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer are in Edinburgh helping house-hunters who want to be in the capital’s most popular enclaves. Kirstie is with Northern Irishman Rob and his Mexican wife Maria, who want out of their noisy rented tenement flat. Phil is with James and Lesley, the latter of whom is living with ME – or chronic fatigue syndrome – which has affected their search.

    I haven't watched Location for years, finding KA increasingly irritating. I did watch this episode and agree with her that it was a pity they only allowed her to mention fatigue. Sad to hear she's crashed badly since moving. I did the same with our last move.

    It's usually enough to put me off even going on holiday with my family, moving sounds like a nightmare. All those little routines a lot of which you don't realize you have get disrupted. Waking up groggy and trying to make breakfast not finding your stuff at first. When they were renovating the house here earlier this year 't was a nightmare finding anything with everything in boxes or otherwise displaced.
