DH has his first posting since we have been married. He is starting his new job in April, but for various reasons, including a very high risk pregnancy, I am staying here until August, when I have had the baby and the children have finished the school year.
DH hasn't recieved hi sposting order as yet, but has tentatively spoken to DE about permisson for our pets, as we have rather a few, inluding 4 dogs. There's no problem there, but it seems the larger 4 bedroom houses we were hoping to get have a waiting list and all that are available are three bedrooms or small four bedroom with 'gardens like psotage stamps' according to the woman DH spoke to. I know we just have to take what is offered, but we will have four children, plus DH's two visiting, so even small 4 bed will be a squeeze.
As DH's posting order isn't through yet, we can't go on the waiting list either. Is this normal? How far in advance do posting orders normally come through and how long is the wait for a bigger 4 bedroom likely to be, or is that a 'how long is a piece of string' question?
I sound like a moaner, sorry. I think pregnancy hormones, havin an absolutely lovely quarter where we are and being a control freak have made this a huge issue for me.
