Has the total lent gone down? Wow, must be a bit worrying for small people who measure themselves by their house value.

As opposed to the small people who point at said small people and measure themselves by the number of digs they can dish out on a sunday night

Did you get up on the wrong side of the cave this morning Mewbs? You seem more than a tad techy in your posts today.

It's a well known fact that the most puffed up bullsh1tters are short men with inadequacy problems.

I'm over 6 foot and feel inadequate in some way on a daily basis.

However, Nicolas Sarkozy, Tom Cruise, Dennis Wise, Bono... you might be on to something.

It's a well known fact that most of the moaning minnies on here are simply jealous of others.... I've no idea how tall they are.

I seriously wish I could take this as a positive sign. Someone, somewhere might get a mortgage to buy my house and I will be [STRIKE]rich[/STRIKE][STRIKE] richish[/STRIKE] less skint and can move up the ladder.

Unfortunately unemployment is going only one place and taxation is set to join it. I could, of course, take Hamishs' suggestion (it might have been on another thread, I have been busy catching up) and murder someones mother to solve the HPC but am I guaranteed they will buy my house?

i tend to agree with you with regards to unemployment but it only starts to affect house prices after it goes over 10% which is some where around 3 million. if we're still in recession when unemployment goes over 3 million, yes it will affect house prices for a few years. in my opinion unemployment won't be the biggest constraint on house prices.

if it doesn't - no real effect on house prices falls and only stops prices rising which equals stagnation.

indian summer? no idea. will have to see in April next year.
