Oooo, I remember the waiting too. I got that inpatient in the end, that I went and parked outside the estate agents, so that as soon as they rung, I ran across the road. I got looked at a little bizarre, but its such a massively exciting thing!!!
I did have a heck of a wait though. They literally rang us just before they shut, so prepare to wait a while lol.
congratulations xx hope you have many happy years in your new house xx
