    The toilet?

    I'd assume the toilet's in the bathroom and the bed's in the bedroom.

    Worst still when they say 'Where's the bathroom'? When they want to go for a piss.

    It's best to give them a fork to take with them, or despite the hot and cold flush, the bigger bits can get stuck in the plug hole if it's more than a piss. <ok>

    I agree the lower one looks more appealing, but it’s a terraced house with access directly on a footpath, the top one is a semi, with parking space, and garden.
    Completely different property types so you can’t compare.

    It's actually a private footpath overlooking a stream and the house has a garage, a parking space and a garden. It also came with various things like bi-fold doors into the garden and granite worktops as standard, things that Bellway charged a premium for. It was a far better house for almost the same money.

    I agree it’s a nice looking house, as you know, big builders need big profits and big plant, loads of staff etc, and that impacts on price, land prices is a big one as well, great small builders are rare, who is it?

    Risby Homes, the family that own the company had to come up with a random name, as their actual family name is Barrett. <laugh>

    For 50 years it was like been chained to an idiot.

    An apt description of the male libido. The original quote goes back to Socrates (the Greek one, not the Brazilian) but I first heard it from Kingsley Amis and I'm doing my best to uphold his opinion.
