# Fingers crossed they aren't timewasters
My parents are having a nightmare selling their house :(

# For my sins, I have the most rotweiler-ish estate agents looking after things for me.
They'll weed out the numpties, I'm hoping.

# We were hoping that
The agents were told that they weren't even to show anyone around the house unless they had the money ready to make an immediate offer. Yet we've had people who haven't even put their houses on the market :S

Don't want to buy a 5 bedroom house do you ;) It's very cheap

# North of Derby
And much cheaper than you would expect, £135k and it's detached.

# Bit too much of a commute into Brum, sadly.
Compared to a 2 bed flat in Islington, 5 bedrooms and a detached house seems almost other-worldly.

# You wouldn't want to live there anyway
Not at the moment, there are squatters in the abandoned house on the corner and they make quite a bit of noise.

# Eeeek!
Sounds scary.

# They have lots of sodium halide lamps in one room
And they had a fire a few weeks ago and wouldn't let the SMURFs in.

No prizes for guessing what they're up to.

# hehehe...
Yeah, that's a bit of a giveaway, isn't it?

# Moving to Birmingham? I was there this weekend.
I'm also moving to Coventry myself in a few months.

# Aha!
Yep, I'll be heading up in about 4 weeks.

# Blimey, that's a quick move

# Not hanging around, no...
Hence I'm hoping the flat sells quickly, can't go on too long paying rent in one place and mortgage in the the other.

# Good luck with that.
Some areas are quite nice. My sister lives out in Cotteride which is pretty decent.
My girlfriend lives in the city centre, which is less good.

# Ah, I was planning to head for the city centre...
Hmmm, may have to investigate further.

# There are nice parts, certainly.
However, my girlfriend is a poor student and doesn't live in one of them.
