Ulverscroft Road, ?565k - surely they won't get it?? ETA: Bloody hell, there's another one in the road on at ?575k. ::o Maybe I should pay more attention to house prices, I just assumed they were still going down!

Well I went on a killing spree today, I don't normally kill things (except for vine weevils) but I squished a moth that flew out of a BOOK when I opened it, surely they're not going to start eating my books as well???? (6)

I saw him in Exeter in the eighties. Was uncharacteristically silenced. Especially when he brought a friend on stage to demonstrate his (friend's) unfeasibly large balls. :))

Very sad, but if it's already sold, too late for any action surely?

Am I imagining it, or was there not at one time a pub called the Gladstone round here?

Blimey Reetpetite, don't think those are clothes moths :)) Ah - you mean ladybirds, don't you? I think all ladybirds bite, it's just that you don't usually notice ....

I vote for The Actress :))

The moths are teeny-tiny, easy not to notice. But it's not the adult moths which do the munching, I think :-S

They're eating my cushions. They're eating my wallhangings. All my lovely things I brought back from Rajasthan, they're munching bit by bit. I've only just noticed huge gaps where there used to be wool. How can I get a double bedspread size wallhanging into my (chest) freezer?!?!?!

I saw the first half of this, before Rab C Nesbitt came on elsewhere ..... What a load of bollocks. Greedy people just out to make money because they can. Cut yourself shaving? Sue the razor company. We've just become a sueing (sp?) culture, innit.

I also think, if it's keeping you awake at night, send them back whatever you think is fair (though I'm sure they'll be absolutely gobsmacked as they probably don't even realise they could have got it cheaper), and next time sell on eBay at a "Buy It Now" price if you're not happy to benefit from an auction.
