If he has to leave the house much, looking truly evil may keep other people further away, and it could save his life.Splatfoot said:
Indeed! 😁 I've just persuaded my husband to go for the mass murderer moustache look for the duration of lockdown. He's a very hairy chap and no haircut for a few weeks is going to be hilarious. So in for a penny in for a pound, for my entertainment!Davesnave said:Splatfoot said:
Do you think he's burying something....😮😮Davesnave said:
Even worse. Who'd want a scary neighbour like that?General_Grant said:
Think that's the current owner of the house next door.Davesnave said:Splatfoot said:http://www.rightmove.co.uk/s6p/69474306
Apparently totally refurbished. .......in 1992 🤔🤔 surely that means in need of modernisation now.!?Don't like the look of the previous owner....And you're not wrong. My parents bought a 1986 bungalow with that kitchen. When I inherited in 2006, the kitchen was in dire need of replacement.
He and his neighbour are obviously engaged in extreme floral rivalry, so there could well be a spray bottle full of Weedol just out of shot......However, in case he or his family spot this thread, I should add that my thoughts concerning this gentleman are based entirely on a prejudiced view of people who look furtive. I have no evidence whatever to substantiate anything I've said. He's probably just like me; a really nice bloke.
No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?5 -

Yes, where I live (north coast of Scotland), there's a company that does a monthly run down to the Edinburgh IKEA, you place your order online and they pick it up for you!JustJane101 said:
It's actually a thing in the Highlands that people band together and place an Ikea delivery every few months or so alltogether to cut costs. Works a treat lolzagubov said:There's some very remote locations in recent posts. i wouldn't like to think how long a drive it would be to the nearest IKEA!
I've used them before I believe!!!!!! I lived north west of Inverness for a while, but currently between Inverness and Aberdeen. Looking to buy back home west of Inverness!

This one looks solid enough from the outside. Not sure why the EA says "in need of extensive renovation or demolishing".https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-65131536.htmlOr for something ready to move in to, and yet has bags of potential for conversion or other uses - https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-73263983.html

Common in Japan apparently, where space-saving's a priority.Patr100 said:
And what is that on top of the cistern? A mono tap?MovingForwards said:Ok, I've read enough and am ready to play!

It was on my possible list with a false wall put up, floor to ceiling book case creating the false wall or just removing it.
I just couldn't picture myself mid- conversation and loads of tea having a mate say 'can I nip to the loo' and actually saying 'yeah, behind you'......
Plus not having a decent 2nd bedroom.
Have they actually put a handsink on top of the toilet?
Cross-posted with Dave!
I seem to remember ages ago we mentioned Japan's obsession with saving room by having drawers under the house that you could slide your car into, etc.There is no honour to be had in not knowing a thing that can be known - Danny Baker4 -
