You would think that Bournemouth and Dorset has its fair share of 2 and 3 bedroom flats in the area, but judging by the number going up there must be some mass influx of people into the area or at least people looking to move out of rented accomodation and buying their own home.
The rumour is that the pub at the end of our street, the Southbourne Cliffs, will be turned into flats once the owner retires. Although it has had a noisy past at times, it was always handy for the odd tipple now and again.
The garage down by Tuckton bridge is always rumoured to be turned into umpteen flats and a Tesco Express type thing.
My question is, how much poo can the sewerage system take?
We've just had an offer for a house accepted, so fingers crossed hopefully everything else will work out without any problems. Only took a couple of weeks from starting to go out and see properties till we found something not too far from Southbourne Grove.
Trouble is, Mr Philips is only just on the next street so too many opportunities for a cheeky little drinks session now and again.
I would like to say that I am not impressed with the arsehole from St Quintin and McConnell estate agents who called up checking whether we were still looking. Nothing wrong with that. Angela told him that we had found a place and had the offer accepted. His final comment was to say "Ah well, most of these things fall through anyway."
Farging Iceholes
What a farging icehole! Nice service, not. Hope GoogleGoogles your ass so other people can be informed of your customer service.
Funnily enough, the person who showed us the flat that we bought 10 years ago also was the one who showed us this house. No pushy sales or attitude so we have been very happy with Slades Estate Agent.
