    Can't believe they're making those cottages 3 bedrooms each! :eek:

    No buyer will expect 3 bedrooms in a cottage like that, and doesn't look like you could swing a mouse in the little one.

    But 3 bedrooms makes it more attractive to more buyers!!!!:rolleyes: Y'know families or people planning families. Is it just me or does that sound really arrogant? I'd hate to shoehorn my kids into a tiny room and the suggestion from them that other people would want to is making me :mad:.

    No wonder some "refurbs" look so shoddy - plastering is a skill. Makes me scared to think how some builds have been done.
    Never let your sucesses go to your head and never let your failures go to your heart.:beer:

    Not sure whether that or "our bricklayer's too fast" is the best line yet.

    Oh god. People who think they can do their own plastering with no experience.

    No "Didnt read the survey" is the best ever... !!!!!!!

    !!!!!! is the point in the survey if you dont read it!!! seriously !!!!!!?!

    Oh, I feel so sorry for that guy, he seems very nice. And his poor face at the thought of all that plastering.

    It's a shame they didn't say how much that plasterer would have wanted.
    2 weeks he said.

    Developer's on his 6th week, with mortgage payments at £1800/month that means it's cost them £1800 for his delay. If he'd spent that 6 weeks doing other stuff it'd be miles ahead. Possibly finished.

    I hate the suspense at the end. The pricing.

    LOL "We are supremely confident. We ARE developers."

    LOL "stick some green things in, we'll get our money back"
    You rarely do with green things
