    So the average house price is actually around £450 higher today than last month. Only the seasonally adjusted numbers show falls.


    Your double standards crack me up.

    What are they doing?

    Cleaning it out. I think they have to give notice they will remove stuff. They will then get rid of the stuff and then put it on the market.

    Luck? Once the one liners start they'll be rolling in the aisles.
    Could be a tough crowd in tonight. Just me, you and the little rewired fella (he's probably on day shift today).

    Feb 99: +0.4%
    Feb 00: +2.2%
    Feb 01: -0.5%
    Feb 02: +1.6%
    Feb 03: +0.3%
    Feb 04: +2.6%
    Feb 05: +0.7%
    Feb 06: +0.0%
    Feb 07: +0.9%

    My, we have had some very mild winters over those years - only one negative in sight!

    Does anyone have historic monthly figures for Q4 and Q1 of each year? I remember seeing some a while ago and they seemed to contradict the winter falls and spring bounce arguments as shown by these February figures. Is there any actual fact in the spring bounce/winter falls argument or is it just populist belief?

    You'd better buckle up. I intend to implement a reign of terror not seen since that guy who used to mention margin calls all the time, his name escapes me.
    I nearly thanked that one. Btw - how many people can you fit in an Aygo? It's not a joke, just curious.

    By the way this is nonsense
    I did notice this. You have been doing this to me for about two years.
