Love to you and your gran Paula-hope you get some sleep tonight hun.

have managed to get the stupid jeeps working and have now listed them on ebay as a job lot on a starting auction of 9.99, am that sick of the sight of them i would rather give them away than look at them for a moment longer!

Hows everyone done on the first day of the weight loss challenge? I've been pretty good-not eaten any carp (am bloody starving now tho) and exercise wise have walked the dog, cut the lawn and done a lot of weeding.

Having a diliemma. Been on S1 homes and seen a little house. Its in a poop state but could easily be made very prettyful. Could easily add 20k plus onto its value. I have the 10% deposit but dunno if I want to go see a mortgage advisor about it. OH does still have some black marks but there is a really good martgage person who deals with that apparently. Plus the mortgage would probably be less than my current rent. (MSE kinda)

Hmmm, worth a go? They can only say no, right?

whats the worst that could happen Nikki-if they say no you never have to see them again-I'd go for it hun!

Yeah, I think I'll phone them in the morning.

The kitchen is NEON pink :eek::eek::rotfl: and the livingroom a very patchy red. Funny thing is the picture of the kitchen - the curtains are half falling off. Think someone could have taken them down.

There doesn't appear to be anyone in it right enough, may be a repo I suppose.

moneymabel

Good luck hun! does sound like a repo possibly:-)

nikki2804

Well its offers over £55k, if its a repo do you think I could get it a bit lower?

moneymabel

No idea-I last bought a house in the early 1990's and it cost 27 k! wish I'd been able to keep it on when me and ex split up coz probably worth 150k now!

Its well worth asking the question.... but make it look like you really aren't that bothered if you get it or not....EA will keep the price up if they think you really want it.

God, I wish I could buy a house for that kind of money..... not a sniff of prices under £100k round here.... even flats are silly money.
