But if you're looking for nice houses at an affordable rate, Walsall is not the place to go. Give me Redwood Park, Vista or Yatala Vale any day!
Yeah, I don't think the UK has any nice houses left that are at an 'affordable rate' the price of houses now is just madness

I just took another look, my god they are blinds! At first I thought they were projector screens reminding me of the lecture hall when I was at school, would definately have to have the inside plastered to cover up all that brickwork, but other than that its not bad.

Well, the old green corrugated plastic is a bit out of date, I must admit. There are some much nicer options available.
