I disagree, I think an untucked shirt can really highlight a man's pot belly, I think its generally pretty unflattering TBh, unless the shirt is fitted, which can look a bit try hard. I think a belly can diappear in the ''blouson'' bit of a properly tucked then arms lifted shirt. If you mean the jacket pockets I agree.
But most of all, that ....pose...I dipped my hands in the water and it was too cold...or.....holding in the BO smell....eitherway...no good. Sorry if he's reading:o
I should have bolded the James Bond bit rather than the shirt..but those jeans :eek: Jeremy Clarkson reborn. O Man..it's friday.:o
I doubt if he is reading..but wouldn't it be funny if some of the pimp my house people stumbled across DS's thread.0 -

It was a genuine good giggle at both fc's and your sharp observations for his appearance / pose. :rotfl:
I checked his facebook page (at least I think it's the same guy), and he looks slightly more handsome(?) there, but his denim shirt doesn't do him much style favours either (imo).

The photo background looks like he's in harbour on a ship, somewhere warm and sunny, probably having just enjoyed a previous HPI sell-on windfall. Although using zoomfox to magnify those look like English houses with chimneys in the background, so maybe he'd just returned from holiday. Yep fc. He'll be lucky to escape with a profit imo.0 -

You know what?..The internet is the very devil sometimes..poor bloke.
He thinks he looks so cooool an calm and dead dishy...and he just looks like an Any Bloke that dressed himself from the Poundstretcher clothing section. And nothing wrong with that I may add...I am not a body/style fascist....even OH has a vest and leather gloves from Poundstretcher................
I am digging myself a hole here...so
He's not my type at all......too wannabe ...0 -

Internet is scary! Dopester or PN are ....like sniffer dogs!
Someone on here tracked me down througha totally random comment. Fortunately, they weren't a were wolf (they are on the other place) but, it highlighted to me 1; how poor my googling skills are and 2; anyone can find you if they really want to.
The PM was a shock as it addressed me by name and brand.0 -
I do hope these poor people aren't watching us watching them!0

But that's The Deal yeah?
They get a bit of a free press promo (talking themselves up as gurus of all things wizzy and swishy) which may help sell the house they no longer want to live in anymore.:rolleyes:
DS maybe (or he may not..I wouldn't want to presume anything) pointing out that most of the wizziness and swishiness was just a bit of HPI luck...not from anything else. Yet most stand proudly, next to their item for sale, like they re The Gurus and, the rest of us dodos just missed out. Well...I did and we could've geared up and renovated bla bla....I just didn't notice any HPI until about 2003...how doh is that.:o
Newsapers are online...so..it's an internet google fest. It's a 2 way thing.
Actaully, I just thought, what is the percentage of those on the thread trading down? Or just getting rid of per se (~as they already have a home)? Are any trading up?
I want to sell this luverly house for 800k to buy this for 1200k.0
