    Tried to post last night: Did anyone watch location location last night?

    When the Harrow couple were inthe kitchen of the one that needed work, did anyone see the black item hanging up behind her?
    Now that was weird, wonder what that was used for :D

    We had our estate agent take photos yesterday as we're going back up for sale (with a new agent) he was much less stressful than the last one with the photos and only wanted to move a couple of things and was really impressed with what we'd done to tidy up, I didn't like to say I'm paranoid about appearing on this thread! He did seem genuinely surprised by how much we'd done stuff though and that's down to MSE as I've taken note of everyone's comments so thanks and I hope my house doesn't feature!

    Ok, this is a bit weird: http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-34912892.html
    There are absolutely NO PICTURES of the inside for some reason?
    And from the floorplan, it seems you have to walk through bedrooms 1 and 5 to get to bedroom 4!

    Sweet jeeeeeesus! Are you sure they aren't pictures taken by the local stalker? Pictures 11 and onwards are clearly taken by someone hiding in the bushes!

    Know what you mean - I keep hoping I'm going to see a house I recognise on this thread. But if I was selling I'd be very paranoid as well. I'd have to make sure I read every post on the thread!

    That could take some undoing, if you didn't like the style!

    My hubby is from that village. That house is hideous! Not all Longton folk have the same taste....

    That's not that odd in old cottages. I think it harks back to the day when umpteen people shared each room and privacy wasn't so important. My friends cottage is like that.
