Blues Chick replied to rollover's topic in House prices and the economy
They've changed my tax code to take into account the (measly) interest I receive from my savings -
Has anyone changed their mind on rate rise this week ?
Blues Chick replied to TheCountOfNowhere's topic in Anecdotals

Renters: Do You Have A Breaking Point?
Blues Chick replied to canbuywontbuy's topic in House prices and the economy
My breaking point has coincidentally just arrived in the shape of yet another two letters, both threatening me with either legal action or breach of tenancy. First letter threatens that they will gain access with an injunction to do a Periodic Electric Test - that I knew nothing about!? Second letter claims that a communal bin store area is a mess and that, even though I've disposed of my rubbish without complaint or incident for almost five years (and even though new tenants moved in several weeks ago) they claim they will take action against me.

Sarah O'grady The Next Housing Special Advisor?

Absolutely brilliant 'montage'...says it all really... -
Hi All I have been a long-time lurker on this site and I'm becoming increasingly worried (yes, worried) with many of the posts here and elsewhere these days. I appreciate the post quoted here is about America, but I am beginning to believe something like this may happen in the UK, eventually. I have an amount of money (not a great deal) that would buy me a home (somewhere I will have to live for many, many years). I fully appreciate the housing bubble and that houses are predominantly overpriced; and that even the MSM are putting out more warnings of a potential crash (finally!). My dil
