Good link mitzzipurr, wonder how many people fell for the charms of the lovely Amanda and now live in a hollow shell, 30 miles from water or electricity.

Re: A Place in the Sun
I did not know until recently that Ms. Lamb was the SCOTTISH WIDOW.
And I cringed every time she told us how much you could rent that dream property out for. And how easy it was.
Makes you think about buying a policy doesn't it ?

I don't know about that - but it seems the best way to get on that show is to tell them that you want to buy a property somewhere no one has ever heard of - the more bizarre the better.
Basically if its reached the TV - the boats already sailed
