Asset..

I'm not slagging off nice things. I like nice things. In fact, I really like nice things.

I go out of my way to find them though, rather than flicking through 'Wallpaper', watching Grand Designs and then nipping down Mrs R to 'live the dream'. Such shops are like interior-design versions of those 'GET THE LOOK!!' pages in Grazia/Chat/Heat/Blah magazine.


Here's a puzzler.

You pop down Mrs R and buy a 'retro!!' sputnik chandelier. It cost a few hundred quid. By the time you get it home, it's worth zilch quid. It looks a bit new and rubbish, but it obviously cost a bob or two so you're happy.


or


You take ten minutes to find one of the countless 60s/70s sputnikky chandeliers. It costs a few hundred quid. By the time you get it home, it's still worth a few hundred quid. It's got a bit of character and charm and you don't see the same one hanging-up next door. And you found it, so that makes you feel kinda chirpy.


As Graham from 'Blind Date' would say.. "The decision.. is yours!"

Bob - I'd get a big farm with woodland and a fast flowing stream on a relatively high piece of land.

I'd also install solar panels, windmills and a water mill and convert loads of the barns into homes for my kids, grandkids, Dad, brothers and any mates who want to come too.


Why are you gona buy one for me??


Maybe I should set up a charity and raise money to help all the landless chavs to become peasants and subsitance farmers again.

Sounds awesome. You could have paintball and white water rafting. You'd make a bundle out of stag dos.

Hi Karter,


As someone in the know re property in ED any ideas which brave soul has taken on the old Design Six site on Upland Road? and if it's not too cheecky can you give up which site on NCR was going to be the new coffee shop?


Eccentric

well I don't know, but voting is better than not voting. What did Emily Pankhurst chain herself to railings for? Anyway, I thought we'd established that chav is not a class thing but we can assume chav means working class now. There's no one out there that is doing it for me either and I suppose I am 'middle class' whatever that is.

At least vote for a marginal party if the big ones don't cut it but not voting at all is apathetic.

That's why I'm in the Green Party, they are a mad mix of all kinds of people, although there are some in the party at the moment, trying to turn us into a clone of the other grey parties. Hopefully they will not succeed, but history tells us that any egalitarian/revolutionary party always gets sidetracked (infiltrated?) and watered down the closer they get to 'power'.

    • erm, I did read, I referenced and I posted - what is your point?
    • Try and read before commenting Sep, or you will, as you have done, not be relevant
    • if anyone believes Reform is a party they can trust then they really don't need to be insulted by me - they are doing all the damage themselves If people don't like the state the country is in they should question why Farage fought for Brexit and why it continues to damage the country so much. He and you will splutter it wasn't done properly but if you can't see the contradictions I can't help you
    • It's not incredibly difficult to understand that people vote Reform because they don't want the Tories back and they don't like Labour and they don't like the state the country is in. It hardly makes them "criminally negligent" - in fact, Sepiroth,  you can just stop insulting people just because you don't like what they have to say - it doesn't really add to your credibility. While Sep says "What the country needs is a serious, mature electorate", what the country REALLY needs is a party that we can trust - and that we do not have.  There is no point at all in having a serious and mature electorate if we don't have a serious and mature party to get vote for.
