LOL, some of the responses have made me chuckle! I know it's not the best house in the world, but we really need to move, and at the minute, we live in Croydon and I hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it. There really is not much around at the moment. We've also been looking in Purley, Coulsdon, Carshalton Village and Beddington.
