Aylesbury? Lived there with my brother for a while... there is nothing there. The usual UK high street. The usual chav colony. Sharons getting married wearing rings from argos. And bouncers getting shot by people they refused the night before.Vieze Oude Man

Hey. I really need my own house, or better still castle. House prices are expensive here and I can't wait till I go grey to inherit a place of my own. I'm one of those failed contractors that only works around 150 or so days a year, due to demand. I could just splash out and by a house in chelsea but would then be broke. I hate mortgages and all that crap. Being a bit arrogant as ive downed a few bottles of wine, but seriously i need my own place. Tripping over servers and cables. My home is a makeshift server farm.Comment
