Grinned at the slogan on wall - very in keeping with the mood of 2017 - "We are strong women".:). Some male film executives might have the "fear of God" put into them by that LOL.

Really makes me wonder what thought process was behind putting the quote up.

Still owns the same one 30 odd years later but my battle to keep it out of the house has been successful so far.[/QUOTE]

Pleased to hear it

I think the house would seem more enticing had the EA waited a while to take the photos.

I also thought this instruction was rude

"Please contact PDQ on 01326 561 561 to book your viewing today."

I certainly would not expect an EA to say that.





But then I scrolled down...

I didn't:rotfl:. I just thought "Looks like it might be the house of a couple of women - or a woman and her daughter/s and there was one or more men-I'd-prefer-not-to-meet somewhere in their past". Shades of Gloria Gaynor (?) and the anthem "I will survive".

So the dormer visible on picture 1 isn't enough of a giveaway for you?

Yes, it is to me-but I'm from this Galaxy.

Definitely. Those in the know will soon spot the give-away boxes of a Howdens Greenwich kitchen, complete with their notorious Lamona appliances....:(

It's in Woodbridge. Woodbridge is in Suffolk, and that's a Suffolk latch.

Perhaps most of the original interior has been eliminated, so that's just to reassure punters they're still getting at least one original door.

Terrible advert from a terrible agency.

I think I remember seeing this one on a documentary of London's affordability crisis. It's seriously depressing. In addition to asking why the hell the toilet roll holder is in the kitchen, I cannot see why the gated fence type thing is in the bathroom. Literally, no logical reason. Is it just to enhance the feeling of being in a prison??

I think the 'toilet roll holder' ought to have a fire blanket in it. At least the place looks clean.

You get more for your £ down this way. Here's a nice "Spot the Dog"

Yep...nice enough that I'm thinking "Yep...that would do me - if I could acquire a husband fast enough to be able to afford to move back to my own area" - instead of having had to be a part of internal migration in our country (courtesy of being single and therefore unable to afford own area).
