    missed it- how much did they want for the penthouse?

    Too bl00dy much.
    £250k for 1-bed
    £350k for 2-bed
    And the penthouse they wanted to make up the difference between the sum of those two and what they've spent.

    I absolutely LOVE zebra print ... all animal prints. Love it, love it, love it ... but in a kitchen it'd be used for a pair of mugs and at a push one tea towel. No more!
