I have a friend

A friend of mine went to an Xmas party, stayed the night and only moved out the following October as the owners of the house sold up and left!

 

if i bring my own bedding is it ok if i stay for a couple of days ? but before i do , whats fa breakfast , dinner , n tea n whos got the remote

 

March does'nt seem that far way... (for my friend)


Just got a e mail , the move is going ahead despite no real plans...

@tuesday_wildchild fancy a house swap for a month ,just in case the friend of a friend turns up here?

 

Oh dear oh dear!
We're over again at the weekend but further North!
Kieran LOVES having visitors, I suggest you tell your friend you've moved and that there's a big field at Kieran's house.

 

You can park your brown bus on my drive.

 

Who's this Kieran you speak of?

 

tis grim up north..

 

We're not going to Grantham.

 

I think it'd definate now ,just seen their complete kitchen on gum tree and they hav'nt paid their mortgage since October...

Got to admire their nerve...

i don't talk to guests ,who are ya...

 

You busy sorting the house ready for them.

 

I would admire their nerve if they had either a plan or piles of dosh. sounds like they plan to set up camp in someone elses home and cross their fingers. i.e. rely on the some else to find them a job, accomodation etc. They'd be better off relying on themselves in the long run. Lock the gates.

 

See we had somewhere to stay allbeit a caravan ,I would be cacking myself if we cut our ties in England and relied on a third party in another country...

I found them a cheap place, but they have zero interest in renovation or having a base ,I suppose we will see what happends...

 

We all know this is not going to go well.

 

And you had somewhere you could call your own to put it. You had a plan and the wit to carry it out as random as it might have been (I don't know )

 

What's it like?

 

It has four walls and a bit of land , for 18k , a bit of France to park his camper and trailer...

I'd buy it ,if it was closer to me...

 

The price is right. A roof would be a bonus.

 

How does it go down with the locals if people do that and don't bother to fix the ruin?

 

The locals don't fix ruins the English do.
