    Generali,

    Aren't you the chap who went to live in Australia last year? What's your fascination with Britain's property prices? You should be concentrating on Australia surely, and building a new life for yourself out there instead of fretting over something that has has zilch effect on YOUR life! I inderstand you can build your own home out in Australia very quickly and at a good price too; why don't you busy yourself with that?

    Why your fascination with another poster's fascination?
    Happy chappy

    Mortgages become cheaper with time. While rents rise with inflation, mortgages go down.:beer: Mortgage repayments become peanuts after just 10 years mate! It's a no brainer.

    Erm, we're not exactly in a period of high inflation, and rents are falling, so...
    Hurrah, now I have more thankings than postings, cheers everyone!
