@contradevian Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 You see what we have to put up with in Scotland regards housing? Its sure grim oop North if that was a sample! £500-600k for flats. Jeez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnionTerror Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Sony's Cash for Clunkers scheme.http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/Business/...200908315364823 ..or buy the same tele from the web, take your old tele to the dump & and save yourself double that amount. I like the way that they've used the word "slashing" in that article, when regarding the massive 50 quid saving on a PS3. If they had "slashed" it to a 150 quid, then they would have the right to call it a "slashing"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aitchie Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 my x-post from Scotland forum: I thought they were absolutely bonkers paying that much for those flats. The way they went on like that door added about £50k to the value of that flat - its just a DOOR! you walk in and out of it when you come home, its that simple. your friends won't think more of you when they come round to dinner parties for the "wow factor"Also, I couldn't believe the bidding on that o/o 475k flat. One minute the guy didn't even like it, 20 minutes later they were bidding 586k for it and then they up it in a heartbeat just because their solicitor says he has heard a whisper and thinks it will go for "a number begining with a 6"! Didn't seem very ethical of the professionals involved to me. Those watching south of the border must have thought our O/O system looked pretty ropey!

Einstein71 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I was in Club, flying to Barbados and who comes down the aisle but the Krusty herself with sprog. She was hanging around bottle (thank god it wasnt breast) feeding it in the area by the club kitchen when a stewardess came over and politely asked her to return to World Traveller Plus. She chose to ignore the stewardess but the stewardess repeated her request. Krusty I kid you not turned around and said "Don't you recognise me?", thankfully the stewardess looked at her blankly and then the Krust came out with the classic "Don't you know who I am?". In a very abrupt tone the stewardess just said to her "Yes of course, you are the lady with the baby from 16E" and then proceeded to shuffle her back to her Premium Economy seat, the last I saw of her was her fat chubby face protesting through the curtains. Needless to say I really enjoyed the rest of my flight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francisco Pizarro Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 She also told the magazine she lost her virginity on a yacht before she was 18 - and her mother was in the next cabin. "It was eight days off my 18th birthday and I thought 'I cannot be a virgin at 18'," she said."It was during the eclipse of the moon, with the Gypsy Kings playing in the background. His mum was on one side and mine was on the other," she added. Her father was where exactly??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much chance with a sucking sproglet. If it was BA, Club to Barbados is often packed with staff on freebies and Air Milers anyway.

Those BAflights to Barbados of course have a First Class cabin for the real rich (and the Captains wife) I spotted Krusty at the gate on boarding and she was holding back, I have no doubt she thought she would get an upgrade but those flights are always rammed.

ccc Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 This evening's show - Autumn 2007 as well. Same as last week. Seems this series was filmed TWO YEARS AGO. Yet they have only just decided to show it now. Channel 4 is a disgrace when it comes to ramping. Beeny's show may as well have been titled 'Sponsored by Foxtons'. As for this one - even worse. Already tonight we have a 'perennial backpacker' wanting to get 'some roots down'. Phil's response ? 'About time too.' Then we have a couple, including a Yank, who are renting a house at present. When Phil walks in he explains this is 'their home - albeit a rental one.' Frowns all round. Next is the World's smallest terraced house. I am exaggerating there, but not by a lot. The cost of this shoebox in not so sunny sunningdale ? A cool £300k. Absolute insanity. It really is. When the yank is visibly shocked at how little you get for your money ? A sarcastic response that this is not America and you get half over here for the same price. They don't actually bother to offer any explanation as to why of course. Even though I do like a lot of British people - I am very gradually starting to really dislike this place. No positive change in the next 4-5 years and I may well ****** off somewhere else.

cybernoid Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Love that american girl. A pair of fresh eyes saying how crap all our housing is. She needs to take her guy with her to america, where she can get a mansion for the price of that terrace in berks. The man is a fool not to be taking advantage of an opportunity to get to america. It's making me cringe, this is the height of the boom. Doh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codeine Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 (edited) Oh dear... If this Yank really did buy at the peak, 2 years ago, I bet she hates this country even more. (below I'm assuming that she buys, as I'm turning over the TV to a real channel now.) It's disgusting how these "experts" have taken this newcomer to the country and have basically fleeced her out of thousands of pounds. I bet she's trapped in Negative Equity hell now wondering why she ever left the USA to come to this hole. All to push some stupid "pwoperdee" agenda. I like watching this program sometimes to laugh at all the morons who believe this property shit, but I think this American was just a bit naive and listened to all of the wrong people. Funny isn't it, all of these highly paid dickheads and she'd have done better by coming to an obscure forum on the Internet. Funny how this program doesn't show a "follow-up" at the end? It would expose it for the sham that it is. Mind you, anyone who buys a property either as a) an investment or b ) as the result of watching light entertainment on a backwater TV station deserves the poverty they get.

Doh. i have not read this whole thread but my god the ramping is back and full on the american girl is so spot on those houses are to small everything has its words in this program £287K is not £287K its "12K under budget" to small is not to small its "she is to picky" what a pair of waN&&ers. this whole country is wrecked if you give the sheeple money they will buy no matter what. oh and they squeezed in the prices have risen lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stig Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 He should be straight off to the USA. However, this is Autumn 2007, so if they had bought in america at that time they'd be even more royally fooked by now! Shameless that CH4 is airing a "new" series made up of content from two years ago. And these "goody-goody" Natwest adverts are really getting to me. Do the Sheeple not realise when they're being treated like fools? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybernoid Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Pity the single guy, 35, been watching the property market for 4 years, a feeling of being left behind by people he knows, last in his group of associates to buy, time has come to buy, I must get on the ladder.

crashpope Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 The yank is less annoying than i expected, probably because she's angry with the shit housing. I can't see the marriage to that feeble streak of piss lasting though - classic internet relationship marriage. Bet his best sexual organ is his keyboard.
