It's moving houses fault.

whilst this is not in any way a defence of Thatcher
No they wouldn't. The housing model thatcher introduced is pretty much a version of the "American Dream" and someone else would have done it if she hadn't.

Not that "waaah someone else would have done it anyway" is a defence of course. But it's pointless to speculate that part of UK life would be any different had Thatcher not existed.

Plus, the whole "every fucking idiot living in the SE of England" thing as well.

It really is nothing short of solid economic concrete
to have a stratospherically over-inflated housing market in one part of a country driven only by demand, absolutely. Especially when that demand is based purely on local employment, and huge fractions of that employment are based on totally intangible fairy dust.

That's definitely the epitome of stable economic growth, that. There's no chance of that completely collapsing in the future.

Oh, wait, yeah, that other thing.

The upside to cheap effects
is that because of the slap dash way in which they're assembled, occasionally one of them gets sprinkled with fairy dust. I have a reverb pedal that cost me £17, and it's more versatile than anything else I've seen.
