It makes me laugh. The lefties at the BBC are talking about "falls in prices" where as the graphs show falls in the rise in prices. Ie. annual rate of house price inflation falling from say 9% to 7% and calling this a "2% fall in house prices".

Where do they find these morons.

House prices only ever go up. Up today, up tomorrow, up forever.

PS. I have been reading on the Times website that since yields in BTL are falling (due to rents staying static and the value of property rising), that rents are now rising at around 10-15% p.a.

BTL, Boomed!

Oh no this one didn't fancy me, they had a boyfriend. The breasts comment would probably draw a laugh actually as he was trying to grow them...

Ok too much information

What was your opening line then? Was it funny?

The last time I saw him he dressed up for his leaving drinks, that was almost 2 years ago. I think he's past the point of no return now. Didn't get a chance to say anything, although what can you say?

Oh dear oh dear... property chains collapsing

Spoke to my mate today that bought his 2 bed North London flat for 180K last year and "sold" it for 270K a few months back. Turns out the buyer (an investor) has pulled out at the last minute because he's worried about the market.

Oh dear.

In other news I saw a guy I used to work with on the tube platform, who is now a girl.

Apart from that, it was a pretty normal day.
