Lucky lad, v pleased for you
My flat is worth a little more than it used to be but only a fucking lunatic would let me remortgage. I can't even afford the bus to get to the bank to apply...

that's one thing that keeps me going
we at least have a nice house, I shudder to think what has happened to the value of the flat we sold. we made a killing on it, compared to when we bought it, but I feel bad for the poor bloke who bought it from us.

My older brother
was a 1st time buyer in 2007, poor cunt.

Almost definitely in negative equity. In the part of London I live in this is pretty much guaranteed never to happen, thank fuck.

I just need to hang on to it long enough to make a decent profit (well it's more than doubled in value in the 9 years I've been there but I've already cashed in about 40k and most of that went up my nose, twat that I am). This is not proving easy.

same as the guy we sold to
just hope he had a sizeable deposit (fnarr)

fortunately my gf keeps a bit of a rein on my spending. I'm doing quite well budgeting my pot habit too which helps

I'm doing about a quarter to 3/8 a week
Which compared to my teenage and college years is practically none at all. The thing is it's mainly Thai (actually it's from Laos, we checked out the language on the packaging of a kilo) and it's too easy to get through. Occasionally there's some speciality hash (did you see any of that Afghan that had 'OBAMA' stamped on it? Hilarious).

sorry /DRUGBORE

I don't tend to see it in those quantities
I'm actually making a quarter last several weeks these days, depends on how much other people have got too I guess, but I certainly feel like I'm getting my fill.

tends to be pretty strong stuff though, which helps.

My oldest and closest friend
is a pretty major dealer which is both superb, and my downfall....

I can imagine
I lived with one at uni. great times. it upsets my gf slightly that we got the same degree (I actually scored slightly higher) despite being stoned every single night except for a month or so at the end.

I'll bet
There was a lad on the same course as me (Classical Civilisation, very useful in life...) who'd read the reading list over the summer each year, cycled everywhere and even did volunteer work helping old grannies and the like on his weekends. I was pretty much married to my bong and rarely moved apart from to the fridge or lavatory....poor cunt got the same degree as me. I felt genuine pity - he was simply crap at exams.
