I know some people trash their houses when they are repo'd, but this isnt merely down to a last minute wrecking spree.
Surely its always been this bad. The worst house I have ever seen.0 -

Hmm.....what would really put me off isn't the obvious stuff in the pictures, but the fact that it's a pre-fab, non-trad structure.
Here's what it could be like though. Sunday afternoon, bit of magnolia, bish, bash, bosh......:

It's Bath, innit? World Heritage City, rubbing shoulders with Van Morrison in the dentist, Nicolas Cage switching on the Christmas lights.....but not in this road, of course.:)

I like this bit:

"The garden is predominantly laid to lawn "
Hmmm, I'm pretty sure it's predominantly laid to load of metal holding the wall up....

Hi all,
I'm having a really naff time at the mo trying to sell a house with lots of hassles along the way. I just wanted to say that this thread has made me laugh out loud and really cheered me up for half an hour!:T
I can see that I am missing the obligatory vase of sticks required to market a house... maybe that should be my nest step!
There really is no accounting for taste is there!
I honestly can't believe the photos that are out there "ah, that's a nice photo, that pile of carp really brings out the best of the room".
My boyfriend & I viewed a house where all of the ceilings were mouldy :eek: whilst Waynetta stayed slumped on the sofa. Don't worry dear reader, we remembered to wipe our feet on the way out! - Now off in the hope of finding a pic for you to share the delight (there was also a dog there which I'm convinced I saw mouthing "help me" from his "land mined" yard!)
I really hope I don't see my house on here though! miaow!October 2013: Make [STRIKE]£10[/STRIKE] £5 a day member no.290
