I don’t even lock the doors to the house and often leave the keys in my car, tractor and quad bike 😂

Same. It was the Mozart fest when I went, some anniversary or other so my visit was pretty much dominated by that. Oh, and I was mugged by the train station.

Let’s hope so.

Woke MaDnEsS 😂😂😂😂

Every cover by Jasmine is superb. Very talented individual.

I have a mate who’s full of this stuff, like the love child of Susie Dent and Stephen Fry. Drives me bonkers when he has a drink 😂

I have friends who have lived in the same house for 30 yearsand every year they talk about moving/upgrading - they never did though and they're full of regret for not acting all those years ago. (I've moved 5 times in that same period). Anyway, you've nothing to lose by viewing. Procrastination is the thief of time.

That's a cheap way to go if you're able to take on those tasks yourself. I've saved 10's of thousands doing work myself and I know the quality of the work is top notch too. It's difficult in my area to find builders, never mind good ones though! Anyway, @Lako42, I'd put together a rough plan of what you want and find a builder to have a look and give you an idea of price. I still think you're looking at £60k + Good luck

I would say a good £60k minimum but prices vary so much for location too. If you’re in the south east you can easily be looking at £80k minimum.

Dependant on so many things, you really need to speak a local builder who will help out with pricing. The variables are massive - how many sq mtrs, brick, block, stone, electrics, plumbing, drainage, single or double storey etc.

Sounds perfect, good luck 🤞

Have you got a buyer for yours already?

I’ll see you and raise you…

Following on from my previous post last August, my council have just announced another rise in council tax of 6% 😡

Going through similar atm although not had your diagnosis. Keep talking about it too, so many of us are too inhibited to address things until the symptoms are bad. I hope everything goes well. Good luck.

Worth a gamble though

Yes, albeit a while ago

If it were possible to visit freely, you would meet the most friendly and hospitable people on the planet.

Just ordered this. Enjoyed Humankind and love his general outlook.

I think on balance that one of the two have wreaked far more damage globally than the other.

Kudos to you for bothering with this 👍

Purse with cash, sun cream, bottle of water and a small make up bag I think. Was a while ago though. That same week our car was broken into, stereo gone and a few small items from the glove box. Car still locked and no sign of entry. Same beach front.

FWIW, her passport and credit cards were safe in our apartment on this occasion 👍
