    Changed your mind again!

    Care to point out what I changed it from? A quote might be nice - but would risk cutting down that strawman image you like to post against.

    Every pound less borrowed (to buy a house) is more than two pounds less to repay and more than three pounds less to earn, over the course of a typical mortgage.

    You don't need to prove anything here either - there are an awful lot of people on this group who are determined to pick personal arguments.

    The last thing you should be doing is going out of your way in the real world to humour them or giving them any sort of leverage with which to intrude into your personal life.


    :smileyhea :smileyhea Why don't you and Pickles just get a room?
    You can't win an argument with a stupid person.

    I'm dyslexic ie I can't be @rsed to check for typos

    To be fair NDG, how do you get back to early Oct.

    Not quite sure what you mean, Steve?
    ...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.
  • Pickles, what have you decided to do?

    he was trying to do a search, i gave his some pointers...haven't re-read the whole thread to see if he was successful...

    Have decided not to accept fixed rate, according to most people on here there is going to be more downward pressure on rates which I hope will mean that in a couple of months they will come back with an even lower rate.

    Don't wait too long though - at some point in the next 12-24 months the banks will get around to figuring out what will happen once there is some stability, what with all that government injected money sloshing around in the system and nothing to encourage people to save it .. and any lovely low fixed long term rates will be pulled and repriced like the trackers were when the MPC came out with that surprise 1.5% cut.

    Thanx !!!!!!? I think I will see what they are offering in Jan or Feb because recession will be hitting very hard then and if retail does not do well over Christmas the rates will have to move even lower.
