"That's what I can't bear, and I shall not come to a place where such things are possible, and we may as well stop our house-hunting here at once." "Yes? And what part of Christendom will you live in? Such things are possible everywhere in our conditions." "Then we must change the conditions " "Oh no; we must go to the theatre and forget them.
The "country cousin" sight-seeing had been carried on with much gusto in the intervals of house-hunting, and more than once Eunice Rollo had been included in the party, for, like many Londoners born and bred, she had neglected to visit places close at hand, and was delighted to have so pleasant an opportunity of making their acquaintance.
The three happy children were glad that the mother bird had come with the father bird up from the sunny South. They heard him whistle again: "In the Winter we go South, dear, But in the Spring to the North we wing." Then together they flew back to the elm. They were house-hunting.
We had a pleasant, quiet evening, and I took nothing to hurt, but it is the relaxing air of this place that settles me. I can't bear up against it. Last year it gave me the horrors, and I expect it will again. You're off house-hunting, I suppose?" "I start immediately after breakfast." "I take a cursed interest in the whole thing.

Her thoughts turned sadly to house-hunting. Wickham Place had been so safe. She feared, fantastically, that her own little flock might be moving into turmoil and squalor, into nearer contact with such episodes as these.

It meant that his feathered friends would soon be busy house-hunting and building.
But I merely think that this is the loveliest place I ever saw in my life, and exactly what we've been hunting for only far, far nicer! and that if we can't have it we'd simply better give up house-hunting, because it's a mere waste of time, and resign ourselves to living in that detestable city for ever and ever!
His eyes were severely bloodshot, and before bedtime headache racked him intolerably. Everything was carried out as he had planned it. They journeyed down into Somerset, put up at a Clevedon hotel, and began house-hunting. On Wednesday the suitable abode was discovered a house of modest pretensions, but roomy and well situated. It could be made ready for occupation in a fortnight.
What a pity that they were both so well known. But what they would do, at least, was to disguise themselves some morning and go house-hunting in some low quarter, like the Rastro, as if they were a newly married couple. No one would recognize them in that part of Madrid. Agreed, master? And the master approved of everything.
