There speaks a man with a boring house. My house has 3 rooms plus bathroom on the semi-basement floor, 2 on the ground floor 2 on the first floor and 1 plus a bathroom on the top floor. The indeterminism comes with the ground floor. These 2 rooms are meant to be living room and dining room, with the servants quarters below. We use them as study and music room. That would leave three bedrooms. However, we thought, when trying to sell, that the back one of these rooms would make a sensible bedroom, so we said it was 4 bedrooms. But you could have both as bedrooms; it would just be a bit odd to pass bedroom doors on your way in from the front door down to the living area. It's what estate agents call 'flexible accomodation', innit? -- Marina Mayes - Reading, UK. To email me remove XX from my address XV535 (sold), GPZ500S (promised), SR250 (in bits).

There once was a young man from Bexhill Whose penis was sharp as a pencil It went straight through an actress Six inches of mattress And buggered the bedroom utensil.
Central / Middle. I think Bucks technically counts as Home Counties but Beds is out in the sticks. Look at a map and try and make sense of that.
This is a wise course, if I may say so. I've got almost no expenses, having housing and transport supplied, and everything here is v. cheap. My tenants cover my mortgage and a bit. I don't really know what to do with my money.
Why not clear all your debts (including mortgage) so that next time the market dries up you can live on virtually no income?
That is what I'm doing. But it's so easy to say: "I'm chucking xxxxukp at the mortgage this month, **** it - I'll buy a jetski next month".
Out of interest, how easy is it to rent out your house (I assume fully furnished) for a set period, say 12 months? Seems you've done so a couple of times now so it can't be too tricky. I don't want to sell this place, but have a feeling it may be sensible to spend a year making some cash whilst the market is good and I've got nothing tying me down.
Norway is a great place to work, I found the people friendly and there isn't really a language barrier in any of the scandanavian countries. The winters are a real killer though, not in a the same way as the drudgery of sleet and snow here, more in the way of "**** this hurts, I need to get inside, sharpish."
Easy. Phone estate agent. They come and look, knock up an ad, and stick it in the paper. They do *everything* - vetting applicants, showing them round, inventory, informing utilities, council tax, etc. They even stump up the dough if the tenants default on the rent. Recommended.
I don't wear a suit to work. Even so, I got measured for a full bespoke suit on Wednesday last. First fitting is next Friday, with delivery two days later. Total cost: 120ukp. Mmm. Well, all the best.
Dingly ding - which is why we couldn't raise an offer of more than 230,000 for it. But it's in one of the better roads (for small values of better), even if it is opposite a drug dealer (cannabis only). No they wouldn't. The one next door is, and he gets about that. The council in their wisdom, however, have decided that no more such conversions will be allowed. I guess it could be split easily into 2 - a 1 bed garden flat and a three bed maisonette. Dunno what that would get. -- Marina Mayes - Reading, UK. To email me remove XX from my address XV535 (sold), GPZ500S (promised), SR250 (in bits). BOTAFOT12, BOD#2, BOTAFOS#2.
