    Well there was snow and hailstones the other day, so that constitutes Winter for me ;)

    You know full well that many predicted rises in the first half and falls in the second half.
    Do I really need to use the search facility to proove to you once again?

    Yes, but you are not allowed to call them falls, remember all the agro you gave me for that?

    You have to look YOY.

    Please, keep up.

    Please keep up lol.
    Where did I give you agro for calling them falls?
    Go find out how to use the search facility and post the link.
    It may help you to refresh your memory which you seem to conveniently forget.

    LOL, really Graham.
    Is that the best you can come up with?

    You make a post saying 'you think prices were falling' which was wrong and I showed the facts surrounding the discussion.

    If facts cause you agro, then there is no hope of a logical debate.

    Point of note 1, I didn't respond to post 48 (your post), I responded to post 49 (chucky's post)

    Point of note 2 The falls that are happening now are what we predicted at the start of the year. Stop getting your knickers in such a twist over something that has been stated time and time again

    So that's wrong...but...

    So I'm wrong if I say prices are falling at the moment. But you are correct if you say prices are falling at the moment.

    Yer, I see how that works.

    Graham,
    I'd like to no longer dance the merry muddle with you.
    You stated the falls now according to the indexes, which I showed that three out of the 4 latest indexes showed rises.

    You then wished to look over the longer three month perios which I agree there are falls. Falls which were predicted earlier in the year.
    I'm not getting my self all in a tiss over as they are not reflecting a serious concern when looking at the YOY figures.

    I repeat again, once more and final for you.
    2010 will be shown to be a pretty stagnant year.
    Some months up, some months down. Over the year pretty stagnant.

    P.S. have you seen the latest MSE News on house prices
    http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/news/mortgages/2010/11/house-prices-could-rise-16-by-2014?utm_source=forum&utm_medium=sidebar&utm_campaign=box

    Peak in 2007
    Falls in 2008
    Rises in 2009
    A Pretty stagnant 2010
    Potential rises of 16% in the next three years

    For clarity again, yet I don't understand why there is a need to have three threads on the same subject on the go.

    Seem you want to take the opportunity to take the mickey out of Hamish who predicted falls in the winter months and is being proven right.

    Smacks of desperation to me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Who started all the threads brain thrust?

    Nah mate. I took the mick out of Hamish because his "new peak" crowing was hilariously short lived.

    As to his "seasonal variations" this is simply laughable. There was simply never those kind of variations (in some area's tens of thousands) in the functioning markets prior to 2007.

    Even the EA's disagree with this BS assesment.
    Statistical skew on blunt averages due to low volumes.
    In no way indicative of the wider market.
    Simples.

    When you lose the argument post a graph instead.


    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:Sounds about right.

    A graph is representative of the facts.
    A comic sketch is just there to be laughed at. ;)
