    Furthermore, I predict a forthcoming spam attack from Jeandinant, who has joined today, made no posts but thanked the OP for their "useful" post :-)

    Yes noticed that as well so all be on the lookout for further holiday posts.

    You may well WANT £62,000 but you sure as h**l don't NEED it. You remind me of one of my grandchildren - she's 4 years old.....

    Why does your world revolve around your "brother in law"? Go and do your home work and stop insulting the intelligence of your betters.

    Sorry but only a fool would need to raise £62K in 5 days for a business.

    This is doomed to fail or just a scam

    A really bad idea OP, I fear this is going to go belly up.

    A few questions Charlie
    What kind of business is it ?
    Has your brother had the books looked at ?
    Why is it being sold ?

    Tell your brother in law to delay the deal by two weeks. Then perhaps use those two weeks to check whether completing the deal is a good idea.
  • That’s weird, my eminently reasonable loan offer has disappeared.

    Sorry OP, it must be against the rules.

    Not to worry, you’ll likely get similar if you find out who to speak to at the rough pubs round your way.

    More likely a 'school holiday' type post , it also appears to be attracting some post builders which I won't quote.
