House Selling Stress - Expensive Decision..
Well, the lesbian kitchen fitters have just put the survey on hold This is the third time they have 'decided' to buy our house over 5 months. We should have told them to piss off ages ago - but needs must. Anyway we've now taken the house of the market and will sell it to Adam's brother in law at a reduced rate - so we go with £12K less than the least we hoped - but hopefully that's the end of the stress.
What's the best idea of a fitting Christmas present to the fack'n fitters???

However, I would like to know why you feel it necessary to state the sexuality of your ex-buyers - I cannot see any relevance.

(I made the comment not to be serious as such, just to point out that quite often we dont realise how "ist" we can be.
I know I'm guilty of it....a friend told me yesterday that one of his friends has HIV. Without even thinking, i thought ahhh gay, when in fact the group of people most likely to acquire HIV are heterosexual. ie, his sexuality is irrelevant......)
Im off to relax in the bath...(in case you were wondering )

Apols to all lesbians out there - at least I didn't call them dykes
lmao....i will get slated for this but.....does anybody remember the 'bloopers' show that featured Jim Davidson and Jethro on the Genaration Game....when Jethro was trying to describe an agricultural tool as a dyke digger.....lol the more he went on the funnier it got the two of them were pissin themselves....aye its a deep dyke diger for especially deep dykes.....FFS I am on the floor everytime I think ov it.....does anybody else remember it??
