Not only are you a housing bull, but you actually have faith in Gordon Brown.

Dude, best get yourself along to your nearest branch of Bedlam....

Mean machine. I missed you! Last time we shared a thread you were leaving us because everyone was flaming your suggestion that house prices would crash....

Glad to see you're still here, blossom.

Strange i don't remember that, in fact i'm sure meanmachine viewed a couple of properties last year but still thought they didn't have much value which was probably true. I echo those sentiments, welcome back meanmachine..i need a couple of bulls to back me up so welcome back sir.:T

Rates look just as likely to go up now as down IMHO.

lol at incompetent Brown. I'd have more confidence in (the other) Mr Bean.

I thought (serious) bulls were now extinct?

The whole Bull and bear thing is ridiculous IMO. There's bull markets and bear markets. Bull or bear surely depends on the market at the time?

Being a (premature) bear in a raging bull market is just as dumb as being a bull in a bear market.

I personally got bearish in the Autumn when it was blindingly obvious things were changing.

Ahh, MM and I go way back. I was talking about maybe 2005 (when people predicting a HPC were deemed a little crazy).

Blimey, gotta laugh aincha...

Last 3 0.25% reductions ordered by broon-troosers have increased mortgage rates (usual react without thinking stuff) and increased inflation (usual react without thinking stuff) due to devaluing the quid (usual react without thinking stuff).

So lets have loads more jumpy-smileys for the ever-increasing number of people having problems paying for the essentials to help the over-leveraged... (even the thicko's in the house of pr@s will eventually twig why the (public) votes are not going their way).
