> 5%: House price growth gaining real momentum
That was you!!! Jeez, it's a small worldI was once working in Croydon for the week when I had a job working away in loads of different places. I'm not really one for drinking or eating out alone every night - I'd go for a curry every now and again, but at least half the time I'm get takeaway. I never went for a drink alone as it just bored me. Anyway, there was a Champion's League game on one night so I went down the bar to watch it. I sat at the bar wacthing one of the screens and very attractive older woman (late thirties - I was mid-twenties at the time) started chatting with me. I'm a friendly sort and although it did strike me as weird that she was being very flirty I was okay just chatting with her. After about half an hour it was if a virtual fog lifted from my eyes and I spotted a couple very attractive women all chatting to businessmen in this hotel bar. It was at this point that I realised that she probably charged for services and made my hasty retreat. Had to miss the second half though, which I was a bit gutted about.
It was the Jury's Inn, Croydon for anyone who likes that type of thing.

Above the national average (VI alert) in every single category.
Sounds like a lovely place to live Nutrisse
I have never agreed with Graham more on this forum when he said that reading your posts is like watching someone have some sort of breakdown.0 -

Well, at least Cleaver behaved like a gentleman.I would have had her on fetch me drinks while the footy game was on. At the end I'd have nipped off to go to the loo, and then clambered out of the toilet window.
Just so we are all clear, this is one big joke yes? You don't really think I worked for two years as a Thai hostess while waiting for the 'op', and that led to me being priced out of the UK housing boom?0 -

Well then sir you sound like a gentleman, and if you are ever up there again I would like to buy you the first drink.A gentlemen would have said 'you're very attractive but I'm not looking for company'.
Which to be honest, is what I would have done.
