The Sold Sign

They do things a bit more slowly in the Blue Mountains.

We exchanged contracts on our land before Christmas, but by mid January the sold sticker still hadn’t been put up.

The property is a 15-20 minute drive from the Real Estate office and the land is at the end of a 2km road, so it doesn’t exactly get a lot of passing traffic, so putting up the sticker obviously wasn’t a priority.

Still, we wanted to see it up there.
Finally my mother in-law dropped into the office and asked for a sticker to put on the sign, explaining that we wanted to take a photograph. The receptionist was most apologetic and said that she would get someone to look after it.

The next day I passed by the block and lo and behold:

You can also see part of our front gate and the 50m driveway that leads down to the point where the land fans out to about 100m wide.
