D'ya think so buddy? How does having an opposing view make me a 'tard (whatever that is).Good god you're a 'tard. How does pointing out your moronic statement either make a VI or signify that I want to go and "buy a couple"?
If you want to buy some, then go for it. Don't let my wisdom stop you.0 -

I'm guessing bas or re, but think of you more as a leo myself;)Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

Erm, this isn't even about an opposing view, it's about your inability to grasp analogies and pathetic assumptions. Do keep up.
For you of all people to claim VI on someone else is laughable at best, and to be honest slightly tragic.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -
I did actually type out that maybe Halifax will slightly touch over the 30% mark, but then though that is wimping out of my prediction.
I have been saying since the start of the year that prices have another 5-10% to fall before reaching the bottom, I still stand by this prediction.
Who knows, I could be wrong, like all predictions - it's all guess work.
A brave prediction. And even braver if you are going to place stakes on it.
I guess all we can do is wait and see. I would have laughed at your prediction 6 months ago, and probably did, but things are certainly going your way

Game set and match then
To be honest I'm just tired of mewbie spouting crap across every thread with no basis upon fact or reality. Just snide comments and idiotic statements wherever I read. This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

Whereas mewbies posts are often the highlight for me. Why don't you stick him on ignore and then he won't irritate you and you don't have to be snide back?

I repeat check Devs footer, I can't understand this as I made my predictions a while ago -20% bottom in the spring 2009 FT index, I have not changed it, unlike many others

Reasons - The upward trend in the market hit the buffers and was cut short before it hit the Zenith, the bottom would be reached when normal liquidity was restored to the market e.g. 90% mortgages at reasonable rates in relation to BR.
Now I don't claim to be Nostradamus like some on here and I understand I could be way out, but that was my punt from a way into last year and I will stick with it.
Oh BTW I do treat the 70% brigade with disdain, so there
I either missed or forgot your predictions. Thanks.
Hmm so you reckon things have pretty much bottomed out. I have pretty serious doubts. What impact do you think unemployment is going to have on house prices over the next couple of years for example? I reckon house prices won't rise until unemployment is falling and unemployment is, as we know, a lagging indicator.0
