Owning your own home

I hope you replied their level of services falls way short to what you expected to be furnished with.

Depends if you consider following up on unanswered questions as communication.

I decided to wait until the whole process is (hopefully) over, despite the satisfaction that zinger would bring.

Diespeker are still being INSANELY useless.
Phoned up to check where my order is, they don't know, and haven't had the chance (since last week) to speak to the person sorting it. They will see if they can find it and let me know.

That's annoying. Ours always come back to our emails very quickly. The longest I've ever had to wait was an afternoon and then our lead solicitor replied at 9.30pm which made me feel bad that she was still working.

The guy I go to for my training rates them highly, I’ve not had much to repair on them, they are more expensive I will say but I’ve heard they are good.

Most engineers have there boilers they like and work on, were baxi for reasons I listed.

Not that favourable, still a bit expensive IMO.

Price of everything now is fuckin stupid, I was in the merchants today and they quoted me £195 for something you can buy for £140 in Screwfix and that’s through the account at “trade prices”

I'm sure what I'm about to say is probably not going to go down well as this thread might as well be called the 'closet tories thread' but you're not going to lose 15k, you're just not going to benefit from a massive tax cut for people that don't need it.

I know this might be a crazy thought but if you can afford a half mill house you don't need a tax break.

They don’t wanna do work but are happy to charge a fuckin fortune. Cunts

Following on from our rat issue a few days ago.

Patched the poison, patched calling the council and bought 2 traps from Amazon. Spring in them would take your finger off and today got one. Would recommend(12 quid each)

That's a worm mate

looks neat. does it capture it alive or dead? I don't fancy finishing one off after I've caught it!(and releasing them again doesn't seem to make sense). I had a rat trying to get in through my catflap yesterday.. fortunately it has a guard on it but it wasn't a pleasant interruption to my day.

12 quid each

Is good price for fresh rat. I'll take ten.

Nah kills them, the spring is big in it. If you put your fingers in it, i recon it would break them.

shudder

I instantly had an image of someone putting their nob in one.

you're just not going to benefit from a massive tax cut for people that don't need it.

We weren't going to benefit from it anyway because everyone was just adding the stamp duty discount onto their offers.

I agree that it's a tax cut for people who don't need it. Honestly I would rather it hadn't been introduced because we needed to move anyway and now everything is geared towards an arbitrary end of March deadline.

I know this might be a crazy thought but a half decent home shouldn't cost north of £500k. That's years of not building enough houses though.

£500k

Where is everyone finding these half decent homes at £500k?

Thanks. Good copy. Will use.

Millions in Scotland under that.

Yeah. I don't want to be one of those English people, but I'm not emigrating to somewhere with even worse weather and darker winters. This country is bad enough.

6 bedrooms and £50k left over. https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/76259979#/

Worse weather and Darker winter, you get use to it. ;) I'd also say that going out is better in glasgow but after this corona is over I dont think anything will be left.

better tap water as well

I thought the question was where in London not overseas.
