Re: BE Meet up
Glad to see that you are okay. Seasonal work loads I guess...all your Arab colleagues disappearing for extended leave. Presumably your UK property search has been shelved for now. I put offers on two properties earlier this month but both were rejected. Still looking for that perfect bargain. Sellers back home seem to have unrealistic expectations.

Re: BE Meet up
I read somewhere that the average selling price in the particular areas I have been looking at has been 7% lower than the original asking price. That should give you a clue. Quite frankly, I still feel that there is more downside to the UK housing market, so I am not going to be rushed. I have an independent financial report predicting another 30% fall, which I don't really believe. In any event, that shouldn't affect most of you guys from the London area.

Re: BE Meet up
I am not sure if I'll make it this time. The in-laws depart that day and I'll be craving some peace and quiet.
