    Making them 18K??? Excluding the costs of sale and financing the 6 months they were empty of course, the figures on this show have always been highly suspect.

    The 1930s semis... The extensions don't really blend in at all...

    Lovely kitchen diners. :D I have a weirdly obsessive thing about kitchen diners. :)

    Everyone makes more than they say. If you appear on it you get lots of materials free because the suppliers get free advertising. Same with Grand Designs.

    They always say on these programs - oh we've made x amount of money but the two houses had 2 people giving up their jobs for 6 months - they don't seem to take that into account.
    Never let your sucesses go to your head and never let your failures go to your heart.:beer:
