Only Fools and Horses, the waterlogged version.
What get's me is when I lived in your neck of the woods and there was a storm/gale force wind/power cuts .. hardly a murmur on the National news, that happens in London and we're eating it !
In reference to Hull .. people [all over Britain] complained that the BBC showed more coverage of Wimbledon than the floods.
PS .. 50 year Mortgage thing ? Up to me leaving, Helensburgh came 2nd highest house prices in Scotland [second to Edinburgh]. More like 100 years.[/quote
and with reguards to oppertunism yes buisnesses do take the piss some times but screwing your fellow man in a crisis is not the same thing
you should have bought and sold at the right time like i did (in helensburgh)i bought a 3 bedroom upper convesrsion for 82k and 3 years later sold it for 165k im happy with my new home with next to no mortgage
