OK, you'll have to stop now SBC - before I throw all my carp in the back of a van and head 'oop north'.

Hmm, interesting thoughts now!

I'm a housing officer - you can pretty much find us everywhere as all local authorities have some kind of social housing!!!

HA! Another selling point, the council offices are about 10 mins walk away. Average salary for a housing officer is about £22-23k ish. don't know if that's good or bad for the role

Well it is less than London wages but then I'd have a 3 bed house with a garden and everything for a 1/3 of cost of a 2 bed flat here.......and near the sea...

Hmm, this thread is giving me lots of food for thought tonight!

This all makes me want to go and see a psychic -does anyone else here love a tarot reading??? Martin should put a column in the budget for fortune telling......

Sorry to hear that Makeup.

I don't suppose I could interest you in a 3 Bedroom Semi with garage in the North East for £80k ?

So jealous! A one bed flat is 110k down south where I am!

makeup I hear Newcastles a really good night out if that helps you make ur mind up. House prices are unreal, it always amazes me how much a few bricks cost, which explains why I have a 2 bed house with parking for 2 cars and a huge garden, and only me rattling round in it.

SBC I'm ok he won't do anything, anyway with the hiding out I wouldn't know who's drove down the street, and his texts aren't threatning, we know a lot of the same people so he wouldn't do anything stupid, but thanks.

Thanks Eco, I went to Newcastle a few years ago for a weekend break and had a great time. I'd love to go back and explore that whole area (Durham, Hadrians wall that kind of thing). I'm not sure I could really just up sticks and move to a completely new place? I think would find it hard to leave friends behind?

Your right makeup it's hard to leave everyone you know, but at least you'd know one person SBC, I've only been to Durham shopping I think it was Christmas time, it would be good to visit more places up there. If I had the time.

Well the renovations are now complete & the estate agent has got a virtual tour of the house on their website if anyone fancies a snoop around
