What I meant was each extra £1k on purchase price = £1k less profit. Aiming for a gross profit of about 30% of purchase price.

Anybody thinking you should buy near London to work further out (like i did years ago) needs their head read.I was in St A today... have never really had a proper potter around before - its lovely.

You'll find better value roomier accomodation right where you are Nikkster. Actually anywhere in your county, even about 15-20 miles south would be great value compared with London/Home Counties. And deffo anywhere north of where you are - even more so.

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.0 -

Just seen a house programme on the telly - and they'd opened up a fireplace and shoved a woodburner in the hole. On each side of the fire were 3 stacked logs. At least one log on each side of the fire was leaning against the log burner.
Isn't that a fire risk?
I'd have thought so, yes. Certainly, it's something my parents are very careful about - as you'd think, it being the point of them, they get very hot indeed.
In the one in my parents' sitting room, there is room either side of the stove to stack logs in the brick inglenook, with a couple of feet between the stack and the side of the stove. That helps them dry out, if they aren't already seasoned.Exciting news, DS1 has a paid internship.:T
Today we went work clothes shopping, which could be the last time that my credit card gets used on his clothes!
Well done to DS! What sort of internship is it?...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0
