Debate House Prices

This includes wider debates about general house prices, the economy and politics. As a result, we have taken the decision to keep this board permanently closed, but it remains viewable for users who may find some useful information in it. Thank you for your understanding.

No - I've never been 'a strain on society'. We've always paid our own way, rent privately, and pay our taxes same as everyone else. It was our decision to have children and I love it! Our children will no doubt in due course be working to pay for your pension when you are old.
But it is very hard on some children, as I said, who are forced - through no fault of their own - to live in unsuitable accommodation. And very hard on young couples who likewise, through no fault of their own, are forced - due to ludicrously high house prices - to postpone having children they would love to have until it's too late, or to work all hours and never see the children they do have.
Oh, and do develop a sense of humour. :rolleyes:
I fail to see your humour and please stop resorting to bringing up archive posts which were said in sarcasm which you think were serious, you are a total crank and this forum would be better without your evil and sometimes sick comments.0 -

It wouldn't have if the immature hunchback carolt had not said "Bring on the crash (Ignoring the fact that millions will suffer for this)" and "I guess you eat babies (Which me being a father of 3 young children find immensely offensive)" For some reason on here the members are turning a blind eye to carolt and i am beginning to wonder if the multiple user theory may in fact have some credibility.0 -

Excuse my ignorance i don't remember the reference to people eating babies and i definitely do not think it should be said in the 21st century and i definitely think it shouldn't be said by a teacher who we are depending on to mould our children.
No, Dean Swift wrote things other than Gulliver's Travels. Try here:

Nah, I am turning a blind eye to all this bickering between the oldies on here, but I actually agree with most of what carol says...0

I do no usually comment on mr b's personal attacks on me, and shall not do so on this occasion either, except to explain the cause of the attacks to those mystified by them. ... blah blah blah ...mr.broderick wrote: »It wouldn't have if the immature hunchback carolt had not said "Bring on the crash (Ignoring the fact that millions will suffer for this)" and "I guess you eat babies .. blah blah blah ....
When my sister and I were younger, my mum would often yell at us to sit at different ends of the room and tell us
"don't even look at each other!!"
Sounds like 2 people need to give up on common courtesy (to the rest of us), maturity and self discipline; click on their nemesis's username, select "View public profile" and then "Add xyz to Your Ignore List"
Please ... for the sake of all us ... and the obviously petrified babies and millions of homeowners ... do it
and don't even look at eachother!!!!
Apologies to XYZ if you exist - I really don't know why I'm trying to get everyone to ignore you.I am an IFA (and boss o' t'swings idst)You should note that this site doesn't check my status as an IFA, so you need to take my word for it. This signature is here as I follow MSE's Mortgage Adviser Code of Conduct. Any posts on here are for information and discussion purposes only and shouldn't be seen as financial advice.0 -
Having explained mr b's problem, I shall happily take your advice and shall 'not even look at him'.

How will he cope?!0 -
PS I don't really think pickles eats babies.
Did I really need to say that?
