Or just somewhere for Mr Hypno to sleep when he snores
In fact, that could be a perfect solution - Mr Hyp in one annexe, kids in one of others......and the ironing pile in the third.
......and just me and my laptop in the big house

that house looks fab - liked last weeks too but I think the holiday let thing would be right up your street!
Well done on the council tax rebanding - I looked into it a while ago but because there had been an extension done on the house it was a no go as that probably explained the different values...Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030

Like the house hypno - very nice!
Hope everyone has a good evening and a nice weekend and half-term0 -
Half term......what's that then It's just another working week :rolleyes:
A thought re the holiday lets - I could do residential MSE courses......teaching people snowballs, scratchcards and free b!ngo..... with a bit of budget planning and SOA-making. I could do a "how to use a slowcooker" weekend......."how to feed your family for a week on a fiver" courses......:think:
