    Weird you say that! Tonight's tea is virtual nandos! I have a chicken breast pitta with fries and salad! Lass is veggie so it's the same but with a veggie burger.

    Bring on the hot sauce!

    In true MSE style, I very rarely eat out.
    I seem to have an aversion to spices though :o

    I prefer homecooking I think. I've been getting experimental with cooking the past few months. It's fun!

    Mrbadexamples threads are also a great laugh!

    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    I would like to confirm that since earlier, it seems that the amount of people with debt problems has fallen.

    Good news! :beer:

    I checked the threads on the House Buying, Renting board. Half of them seem to be problems with tenants. One enquiry about buying in Egypt!!! And some stuff about showers, drains, etc.

    Not a lot of the Buying bit in evidence. Perhaps they should rename it.

    why does this upset you so much Graham, it is not just down to the time of day. It is still over 325 on there as stated most of the time last year it was between 150-225.

    I was just stating it is abnormally busy at the moment. What is so bad about observing that and asking what the cause could be?

    Only only a couple of logical answers do far and surprise non were by you.:eek:

    Upset?

    I'm amused by it all Really.

    It tickled me that you would actually think that the amount of people on the housing board is an indication that more people are buying.

    If that;s the case, and it is the case you laid out, surely therefore it is the case that less people on the debt board means less people in debt?

    Just sounds a bit silly.

    I just checked there seems to be about 8 on the front page so that is a bit disingenuous.

    As far as I know it is selling also............. don't see why an increase in users seems to be put down to me insinuating people are only buying.

    It always has been busy on there for renting but people have got to admit the amount of users on there at the mo seems to well over average.

    Did i say that you cretin.....................

    I said it could be a sign of increased activity, that could be renting buying or selling.

    Is this indicative of the market becoming more active again?
