I'd advise you to hold on because with the election and other stuff, house prices will be falling a further 30%. Instead of getting this non-cottage house, you'd be looking at a chocolate box style thatched cottage!!!

There are plenty of "I hate this particular poster" threads available for you to have a go at your blood enemy without fouling up someone's cry for help thread.

Pot, kettle, black. How did your first post on the thread help the OP?0 -

Your friends are quite clearly unable to make their own life decisions and must be taken in hand. Are they driving the most sensible cars? Be sure to do their shopping so they eat the right food. You could buy their cinema tickets in case they want to watch anything too scary. Are they in the correct jobs? Start applying for better ones on their behalf. And don't forget to supply whichever toilet paper you think best for their needs.
If you discussed my life like this online you would be an ex-friend.Been away for a while.0
