I once had a propective seller tell me they had another buyer who’s offered the same money as us, and would we like to up our offer? (we’d offered asking price too! Market was mental at this time, and/or we were mugs, and loved the gaff).
I reckoned we were getting played, so I just said ‘nah, take it or leave it’. They left it. Mrs was pissed at me for insisting it was bollocks and we never got that house. Which was banging.
Thing is, we later found out her smarmy cunt of an ex (who had cheated on his LTP back in Germany with her while they were at college in the US) was living in the same development, and whose flat would have basically overlooked our house and little garden.
I feel like I dodged a bullet there. CSB.
Loved the ‘Cheggers tried to grab my pussy’ story Andy.
