    What is this country coming to when a 28 year old, right out of uni, demands the right to their dream house, and moans that a terrace or semi is not good enough.

    Sorry, but like everyone else the only way you're do it is by years and years of hard graft - and this includes lowering your expectations at this time.
  • House sales ARE up. FACT.:p

    People are starting to buy again; banks are starting to lend again; and house prices haven't dropped anywhere near what some of you were hoping for! Tough!

    Makes me laugh when people on minimum wage feel affronted that they can't afford a nice large semi with garage, large garden, fishpond with those huge koi fish that those type seem to love. Makes 'em feel a bit posh I think.:rotfl:

    Next they'll be demanding that Harrods knocks 70% off their furniture - just for them!!!:whistle:
