Milly replied to the topic townhouse definition in the forum Help Needed! 19 years, 1 month ago
Thanks for the feedback. I’m thinking definitions have change over the years and they differ depending on location.
I guess I was mainly thinking of those townhouse estates where there is a pool tennis court manager etc. The BC always seems so exhorbitant. And I have never personally liked them with the big security gate out the front making me…[Read more]

Ken
you have asked me to comment on so many points but i’m sure other formumites aren’t interested in our debating marriage and the personal foibles of mankind.While you make some very valid points, You place extremely high expectations on people. I’d say unrealistic expectations because you believe people can change their basic natures. People…[Read more]

I don’t believe there is such a thing as unconditional love Kenkoh. (tho love for our kids might come close)

This would be a lovely ‘leaving home’ gift.
says Celivia.
AHAH!ok i get it now! I know where you are all coming from! It has always concerned me that kids are often well into their thirties before they leave home. Buying them houses for their 21st mightn’t be such a bad idea after all. [biggrin] . I had previously thought of just buying them a…[Read more]

gees I can’t believe that people with dogs dont want to find a home WITH a fence. I woulda thought it was a priority, dogs or little kids….ya gotta have a fence. I spose with no fence they will go crap in the neighbours yard so I guess that’s a bonus. But you’d think that it might worry them that rover might get squished on the road.
Anyway I…[Read more]

Thanks C2 and Derek especially for great advice as usual.
I gave the solicitor a ring and politely enquired after a refund on the stamp duty. He told me ‘the wheels are in motion”.

hi c2
the solicitor tells us that the stamp duty was paid despite the fact the transfer never went through. Of course i have no proof of this and wouldnt be surprised if the money is floating around in the solicitors trust account.

Dont do it Duchess! Never consider it! I mean apart from the potential loss of assets……Do you really wanna pick up some blokes dirty socks? AND he will steal your remote control. You cant just serve up baked beans for dinner, you feel obliged to cook a ‘decent’ meal when there is a man about.

If the home is not kid friendly, that is, allowing them space and activities away from adults, then they will go to someone else’s…[Read more]
