:(Brrr it's freezing here too

Had my house valued yesterday - same price as I bought it 9 years ago so having another valuation on Thursday.

Hopefully viewing other house on Sunday as going tomorrow would be £115 on train fares

We sold stc our house back in 2007 (didn't go through with it in the end and stayed put), can't remember what it went on the market for but it sold for exactly the same as what it was valued at last month.
We'd probably have been better off actually selling it and renting somewhere for the last 7 years instead :mad:

Morning all. Lovely and sunny but a bit chillier today.

Bubbs I think the cough medicine is pholcodeine linctus.

That's the medicine you need bubbs it certainly sorted Nannylala out and made her feel better

Yeah per person.
All started last year when my son and daughter bought a virgin experience for mums 80th for a balloon ride. Mum had always said she wanted to go for a balloon ride but when she got the gift she got scared and decided she didnt want to do it lol. Several bookings were made and cancelled (by Virgin experience). Mum suddenly announces she wants to go up the shard instead. Virgin experience turned the balloon ride voucher into a virgin experience voucher instead and said we can choose the shard that way. So thats what happened yesterday for my sisters 40th we went up the shard instead.

Awwww that's a lovely present
Can't believe they charge that much to (I assume) go up and back down again in a lift!

Would have thought your house worth more seeing you've had work done on it

Hope you get a viewing on Sunday fares are dear :eek:

I did similar years ago. I not only left my door unlocked, I left it wide open!! :eek:
I had double yellow lines outside my house, so I had quickly parked my car outside and loaded my 3 dogs in the car and then drove them to the park. Walked around for over an hour then drove home to find my front door wide open!! :eek:

I thought I had been burgled untill I realised what I had done.
It was in a really rough inner city area too! What a muppet!!

My neighbour did this recently, I was just popping out to take the kids somewhere and noticed next door had left their front door open.
Went round and knocked on the door and when there was no answer I pulled the door to so it latched.
We left our house and started walking up and that was where we passed our neighbour walking back from the shop.
He was so grateful we'd been kind enough to pay attention and had gone to the shop and not realised he'd forgotten to shut the door :eek:

We've frequently gone to bed without locking the French windows! And next door has been known to leave the car door open. Fortunately we are in a cul-de-sac that is off a road that is off a road that is off a road, so nice and quiet. Those that have left their door open in a busy area must have had someone watching over them that day :eek:

My parents live in a street like that. I once left my bike on the front garden one night and got such a telling off next morning when it was still there when Dad went out for his paper.

We're not exactly busy but this area is dodgy.
One of the houses here had a handbag snatched a couple of years back when she left the back door open while being upstairs in the house.
I'm really OCD when it comes to checking doors, DH on the odd occasion is known to leave one of the back doors unlocked and go to bed :mad:

We originally sold our house in 2007 and we moved in to rented and the house sale fell through and then the property market crashed so ended up renting ours out and staying in rented ourselves and ours is back up for sale now but for a few thousand less than before but the way I look at it is if we had sold it then We wouldn't have had as much equity now and the same would apply if you had moved into rented 7 years ago in would of been dead money so at least you have paid it in to your own house rather than someone else's
