Personally I think that providing decent homes for people
instead of cramming them all one on top of another is a great idea. I know I hate having a garden and love listening to other peoples' music, screaming children and sex noises through the god damned ceiling.

Plus, if you put them all in identikit housing, it ensures I'm going to be able to buy somewhere pleasant in a nice little village.

Well, I actually don't.
I want other people to live in them so that I can have a nice house. New Towns are for the Captain Bollockheads of this world.

What's a kroney house?

(Mr Udagawa, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:05, Reply)

No newer than the thirties and in the Surrey hills.

I said Surrey, not Essex.

( Kroney, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:08, Reply)

Surreys full of mock tudor estates and don't you try to deny it

(Mr Udagawa, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:09, Reply)

I like to pretend they don't exist.

( Kroney, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:10, Reply)

Yeah, they're pretty inoffensive; it's post WW2 fourth phase housing that stinks

Nah they built things proper back in the old days

(Bonzodog29 is an unemployed sponge of the worst kind, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:23, Reply)

yes, the lath plaster and wormridden beams must really be standing up to the damp climate

(Mr Udagawa, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:27, Reply)

I know
I mean all old buildings fall down that's why there are hardly any around nowadays
(Bonzodog29 is an unemployed sponge of the worst kind, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:32, Reply)

especially the ones underpinned with concrete and held up with steel beam inserts

(Mr Udagawa, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:35, Reply)

I just checked and I only have 2 ft thick solid stone walls
Will my house fall down now
(Bonzodog29 is an unemployed sponge of the worst kind, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:38, Reply)

Can't think why you smell of mildew and the house stinks with rotten joists what with the lack of a cavity

(Mr Udagawa, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:56, Reply)

That'd be the preference, for certain.

looking out of your tiny little patch of garden at the bright brown new fence
or from the pvc windows across everyone else's identical tiny patches of garden on the identical estate.

shudder.

(Mr Udagawa, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:20, Reply)

OBVIOUSLY

not much scrap value in iron dear, plus i think you're confusing Al here with another

( MEATSNAKE Richard Hammond, Tue 2 Dec 2014, 11:24, Reply)

the two tonne beams being delivered today might be worth more down the scrapers, perhaps i should 'steel' them instead
