What we know about PP's house:

I've got 2 garages actually - adjacent to my beautiful house.:p

Jealous are you?

She paid £525k for it in 2007:

I paid CASH for it after selling my previous one last year - for £525.000 to be precise!

She likes it:

There is nothing more comforting and homely than living in a lovely, sumptious home filled with comfortable fine furniture and relishing in the comfort and spaciousness of it.

It's freehold, not leasehold:

Are you dense, Nenem?

I don't have a mortgage.................

Read......and LEARN!

Oh, and my property is Freehold - I own the land it's built on. And as for you saying the council could come along and and build a motorway through it...................:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:you're bonkers!

And jealous.:p

She has a large designer kitchen, with integrated units, including a new £1,000 tumble dryer:

Ha! YOU obviously can't digest informaion properly!

Yes, I DID buy my property in the last year - for cash - after I sold my previous house.:p

As for the tumble-dryer (of which I subsequently bought) I needed an INTEGRATED CONDENSER type (all my units are fitted) and those dryers cost about a grand. I thought that was expensive - seeing as most dryers are only about £250!

It had NOTHING to do with space (my kitchen is LARGE:p ) but I didn't want to spoil the neat lines of my designer kitchen by having any old dryer stuck in the middle of it! PLUS, I needed an INTEGRATED one so as to cover it with the door which matches the rest of my kitchen units.

I suppose you wouldn't know about integrated appliances - in fact, I doubt you even have a tumble dryer!!:rotfl:

She lives in a "nice area" and not on a "sink estate".

Thank God YOU'LL never be able to afford to buy...................you'd drag the neighbourhood down.

The words SPONGE and SINK ESTATE spring to mind.

Yeah but, no but, yeah but, no but......................

Ever heard of the words WORK, PRIDE and GRAFT?

Sounds like you and your parents are lazy lards who want everything done for them without getting off their fat butts!

No.

I've not been in front of a circuit judge for ages. You get circuit judges (called "your honour") in County Courts and Crown Courts.

District Judges (County Courts and Magistrates' Courts) Magistrates, Immigration Judges and Senior Immigration Judges are "Sir" or "Madam".

High Court and Court of Appeal judges are addressed as "My Lord" or "My Lady".

I am almost always in front of Immigration Judges and Senior Immigration Judges, or High Court and Court of Appeal judges.

In fact, I more normally say something like, "Those are my submissions, unless there is something your Lordship would like me to expand on?"

You don't call a High Court or Court of Appeal judge "you" either. So one might say, "If your Lordship could turn to p.13 of the Claimant's bundle...."

You ain't half a good Googler, NDG!:rotfl:

I keep missing out on these slanging matches. Bad timing as ever. Is there feed for 'newest slangers' I can hook up to?

Here you go, Conrad!

BTW, what is it with these oldies on here who because they've been repeating themselves for the last year (all to no avail) seem to think they're superior in some way to anyone new?:rotfl:

Reminds me of those people on holiday who seem to think the hotel belongs to them after the first week, and resent the next planeload of holidaymakers turning up!:rotfl:

I do so like it when we agree DD. I don't mind people talking in figures bcause its useful to see their (hopefully truthful) experience. I share numbers too, but I think its odd when people make associations on 'wealth' and investment choices not character and circumstance. I couldn't care less how much someone has got, so long as thy came by it legally and spend it legally, ( preferably somewhat morally).

Good to see you're not materialistic! One wonders why you're on here actually?:money:

Generali

Just out of interest pickledpink, what do you think is likely to happen to house prices and the UK's economy in general? Also, what do you think is likely to happen to the economy in Purley please?

If the City banks are having trouble for example, do you think that will impact on Purley house prices given that many Purley residents are City workers I would guess, especially those in big houses?

Fair point right back, rb. PP does seem to wield her equity like a weapon on this website. The thing she doesn't seem to grasp is that because it's an anonymous site no one cares; because either no one believes her or because no one knows her. How can you be jealous of a stranger?

It's also a sad state of affairs if people have to boost their egos by bragging to strangers about wealth that they may or may not actually have.

DD

If you think I'm bragging by the fact I sold my house at over half a million - and bought one at that price - you must live in a very sheltered area.

Half a million pounds is NOT a lot of money where I live (and where I sold)

Many of the properties where I lived previously sold for between £650K and £1.6M - mine was the cheapy!:p

I don't care whether you think I'm bragging (I'm certainly NOT) or whether you think I'm lying. I happen to know that Generali lives very close to where I sold my last property before I moved here - and he would know how much my house went for.

I'd be more than happy to PM him (he sounds one of the very few normal people on here) details to prove WHO I am, - the HOUSE I sold - and the estate agent who dealt with the transaction.

I could post the land registry details but that wouldn't be proof it was mine, would it?:p

Why does my house bother you so much anyway? It doesn't belong to you so you don't need to worry your little head about it.

Oh, I remember that one.

What's so funny about that?

I DO own the freehold - I own the land my house is built on. And I also own my garden (and that's big too):money:

I've got £8.67 in my purse - take that! Ha!

I can beat that (well if we are talking about lack of wealth anyway), I have £5.01! :rotfl:

My garden is big too......but I don't own it, if I ever move out of here the next social tenant is going to be lumbered with a fully landscaped garden (I'm trying the boasting thing out to see if it suits )
