On ice


 
I bought this bottle of champagne last month as it was half price.  I was hoping that within a short time I would have the occasion to open it with my beloved and celebrate.  I put it in a cupboard and waited.  And waited.
 
Last week I had a job interview.
 
Last weekend I viewed some houses and found one I want to buy.
 
Two days ago I was offered the position of supply teacher within the council area I am hoping to move to.  I put the bottle in the fridge.
 
Yesterday the lady who wants to buy my house came back for a 4th viewing with a builder.  She's saying and doing all the right things but as yet has not made a formal offer.  In Scots law once a formal offer has been made and accepted it is difficult to back out unlike English law. 
 
So for now the champagne is on ice.
