    I said Wales, not my town.

    So you keep tabs on rental rates for the whole of wales (I bet rentals in holiday areas are not cheaper). TBF you did say local area first.

    Or:

    Net mortgage lending by the major banks fell to £1.8bn in April, the BBA said. This was its lowest level since February 2001.

    See what I did there?

    Yes. You mentioned the net lending figure, which has no relevance to the number of approvals. :)
    If I don't reply to your post,
    you're probably on my ignore list.

    I thought Wales, Scotland Northern Eire and the North were special purpose vehicles invented so that those in the rest of England can hide how rich they would be if they didn't have to support the !!!!!!!!!!s?

    I blame this winters unseasonably wintery weather combined with the hurricane of 1987 and the fact that this year has had several bank holidays.

    The housing market is ROCKETING I read it in the daily express.
