I'm afraid the best I could do this year was #19 in Scotland for one of those wee tubs of Graze protein beans/seeds. I bought one most Wednesdays last year for elevenses 🤷🏻♂️4

So, in my general monitoring/snooping of the local property market, I'd noticed that the descriptions seem to be getting a lot more flowery, and just assumed it was estate agents working a bit harder for their money while we are in a sustained property slump.
Until I saw this at the end of a write-up....
It is AI writing them, I should have guessed 🤦♀️! And there was me giving credit to the estate agents for trying more, when in actual fact this particular one has been very lazy in not proofreading the d*mn thing!Mortgage start: £65,495 (March 2016)
