Wow! I remember a recent article about a couple who paid more than this for a lock-up garage 400 yards from their home because they couldn't park their car nearby.

Well at least you wouldn't have to get out of bed for a pee in the night - or to make a cuppa in the morning!

Both, ho ho ho

About that picture - there's a flat in my street that's got a "spare" bed like that in the living room. No kidding. I walk past it every night on the way home from work and hope no-one actually has to sleep in it every night.

If it works for womankind, why change?

I think he is lovely - but never more so than Daniel Cleaver in Bridget Jones' Diary - that first shot of him in the lift does it for me every time!!

Fair point, but you don't have to move 11,000 miles to find affordable housing. I'm sure the Taff can show you some affordable gaffs in his neck of the woods.

Just seen the actual article - that "flat" is in Earls Court, just down the road from me. Blinking flip!

Maybe I can sell off my spare room to get a bit of cash for the move, he he he
