    No Cheery, the area she was thinking of was not at all suitable IMHO. Far too busy & noisy and not conducive to a calm state of mind. Whereas where she is buying is very calming and zen like :)

    When I first put this house on the market - I did look, very seriously, at *that* area.......I could afford one of the smaller terraces which would have been fine, but when I made my "fors" and "against" lists, there wasn't actually enough to take me there.

    Whereas the one I am actually buying was so right, the very first time I walked in.

    So, gallygirl, you have the accolade of being RIGHT! Here, have a tin of sprouts as your prize :D

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Could you wrap the tin in crepe paper and tie string at either end?

    Then it could then be the 'cracker' centrepiece on your Christmas dinner table :j

    Or it could be a housewarming present for your housebuyers :eek:

    I might leave them outside for Rudolph on Christmas eve......could give them some extra *oomph* as they fly around the world delivering presents :D
