    Interested to visit my mortgage account online earlier and find that Halifax believe there to be £12k of equity in my mortgage. A few weeks ago the equity that had been in there had completely gone and we were teetering on the brink of negative equity.

    It has no direct effect - I neither plan to draw on this equity nor move house or even remortgage. But I do find it curious that a housing market as dead as several of you insist it is has seen prices go up, mortgage approvals shoot through the roof and my lender start seeing cash where there was none.

    This is drivel.
    !!!!!! is there any need for this drivvel?

    No need at all.

    What's up babe? Can I help:confused:?


    I broke my blooming foot on a door we had just taken off it's hinges...that is what! Didn't know it was broken at the time I posted but by goodness was I in pain at the time.

    Not a good start to the school holidays.....
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    Mate, I have reported this post as offensive and I want you to know why.

    3) You are unable, it seems, to post anything of worth on this forum and instead follow me around like a stalker trying to insult me with gay slurs to avoid answering simple questions about the failure of your "property empire".
    Here are some more of you insults and where you post slurs to get me to respond.

    Mate:j
    I know this bloke who bought right at the peak with a megamortgage for £350k, thought a bit of magnolia and some lanimate flooring would make it worth £650k, then £600k, then £550k plus, now he don't talk about it no more :rotfl:

    I wonder if he's feeling ok - pickles, you feeling ok mate?:rotfl: :rotfl:
    Mate, he's up to his lug-holes in debt, probably flogging the kids toys on ebay to pay the leccy :beer:

    Got about a 7times mortgage on a docker's wage:eek:

    That's gambling, pure and simple:rotfl::rotfl:
    You wouldn't say that if you were sat on a mortgage of half a million for some sh1thole the ea convinced you was worth £600k done up at the peak and now you couldn't sell for half that:A

    Ask Onion Boy if he ever shows his face on this therad again:rotfl::rotfl:

    I'd like to see a projection for what you think property will be worth in 2 years while we're at it mate, might be good for a larf:T
    These are just a few Fungus but there are loads more.
