    The naff & taff period - Often called "bad taste".
    It looks like a post war bungalow on the outskirts of Glasgow - "Located in one of Whitecraigs most coveted addresses" - Coveted by whom <shudder>.
    Footballers?

    To be fair, it is one of the most expensive neighbourhoods in Scotland, but cash doesn't always buy taste...

    My jaw dropped. Who would want to buy that? 

    Mostly, when I see houses on here, I think that I could live with them as is. But this would truly upset me. 
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Aaaw, looks just like the much loved cat who we looked after for daughter's family when they went on holidays. Miss him so much, even many years later.
