    Oh no. I hope theres noone here who bought in 2007. :eek:

    You seem to have gone into a posting frenzy just recently Geneer, why is that? I see they lifted another embarrassing thread relating to you - do you have friends in high places? ;)

    You mean the 'geneer buys' thread?

    Wonder why it went. He did take an absolute pasting, perhaps he asked them to pull it to save further embarrassment. ;)

    Its only fair. Don't think I've seen a more transparent case of "How am I going to get out of this one" on a house price crash website. Looks like people who are exposed for their financial ineptitude will in future be accused of having "done a geneer".

    Incidentally, having noted that he pulled Hamish up on the other site for being "on site" when being discussed I see that his light is on green presently. :p

    It is pretty hard to think why else it would have been pulled...

    Yes, Hamish did a brilliant analysis of how geneer got it so wrong.
