    You must be lucky, I live in London with a good wage and deposit but still can't afford to buy. Prices have a long way to fall here.

    Are you not worried that your deposit will be eatern in the comming falls?

    you're in trouble then Brit - London is where prices have gone up most.

    Wow, you must be a 'real' man to buy property in London. Oh my, no chance for me and the 'girls' then.

    My original post was a bit strong but it's fair.

    There's no prizes for prudence in this world. He who dares wins (or loses sometimes). But better to lose occasionally than to be a plodder.
