Well, as soon as we get a natural disaster which we can't cope with I'm sure the tents will come flooding in...

Got to be a joke surely. Then again going by the types of people who want to live there I suppose it is no surprise

Barclays investment bank has 20,000+ employees and the average bonus was £190,000 each. You work it out.

No more bust under Labour!

Scarce new sellers bump up asking prices by 3.2%, an average increase of £7,137 with London setting a new record of £427,987.

Monthly rise reminiscent of boom-times; there has been no higher rise since April 2007 when we saw a 3.7% increase.

January sees record search activity on rightmove.co.uk, up 29% on same period last year.

The economic fundamentals cannot support further price increases of this magnitude

At this rate, in 10 years, sasguru will be half as rich as me.

Boomed!
