    and just around the corner here. It looks like a lorra, lorra draylon furnishing gets sold in Peterborough :D

    People in Birmingham love those weird brick fireplaces as well - I went to one that had a radiator in the fireplace! It was so odd. I just looked to see if it was still on rightmove but it must have sold cos I can't find it.

    You'd be surprised how people live. I get to visit lots of peoples houses in the course of my work, and by far the worst ones are those of Directors and upper management!!

    My boyfriend has to go into lots of houses for work, and has seen some sights. He says most of them you have to "wipe your feet on the way out".

    My friends told me I hadn't been very wise in my purchase of my house - because we didn't have a "pebble" fireplace on the wall.
    I pointed out that when you are spending hundreds of thousands of pounds, a £150 B&Q fireplace isn't going to seal the deal. They couldn't quite get their heads round it, and think I'm common because I have carpet rather than laminate. :rotfl:

    Amcluesent, your post is highly offensive considering what has happened to a family. Can you do the decent thing and remove it please?!

    Back to the original house

    That definately looks like a repo, repos always seem to have kiddies toys scattered in the garden, maybe the ex-owners trying to elicit sympathy.
