All figures of speech, Tobes, but don't let that stop you slugging away on Stan's behalf. He needs as much help as he can get right now, mate.
'We both started to laugh' isn't a figure of speech, it's a statement of fact.

Only it never happened did it....

If you were genuinely involved in a project of this nature (at the level you claim, and not merely in some form of conveyancing associated role) Then you'd know the figures were correct and accurate and the thought of actually questioning them on the basis of an internet forum comment would be laughably stupid.

You're a pathological liar mate

The Cornish builder backed up his comments. Did you miss that bit Tobes? Forget the industry stats and evidence, the Cornish builder has spoken (emailed)!

Wow! This has really got to you, hasn't it, Tobes?

Why is it all so important to you?

Let's assume that I have simply concocted all of this inside my head, then so what? Why get so upset about it?

I was beginning to wonder where you'd got to, Stan! You were just taking a breather, though. Whew!

Keep windmilling, mate!

That's as close to an admission that it's a pack of lies as we're going to get, but it's close enough...

It's not 'got to me' in the slightest mate. I was chuckling last night while having a nice glass of malt sat on the couch in front of the fire, as you tied yourself in knots with your lies - as unfortunately for you - you'd stumbled across a commercial property professional and someone who has decent amateur knowledge. My better half was even asking me what I was smiling about. "some bloke making a complete cock of himself on the internet" was the answer :)

My building partner has just emailed this comment to me: "...don`t take too much notice of an estate agent, most of them are full of ****, and not qualified in anything !!"

That's set me off, again!
 
Hmm, an estate agent.

Stan's been trying to big it up a bit by saying that has a few bolt-ons to his services. But, put it this way, if the bloke who arranges to sell you your house also cuts your hair, he's an estate agent who also cuts hair. I think you get my point, mate.

I'm no expert in this field so I don't get too involved. The estate agent thing answers a few questions for me though. <ok>

Indeed, Blueman. True professionals, like us lawyers, are more refined with our banter, and far less embittered.

Whilst I have found it entertaining, I don't actually understand why he gets himself into these situations as they always end up with him getting hysterical, claiming he's been slandered/libelled/defamed (I don't know the difference, it's not my field you see), he's going to call the police etc.

I do get that he's desperate to appear superior and clearly he has personal issues that he's dealing with but being proven wrong and made to look foolish on a daily basis surely can't help improve his inferiority complex. He must have knowledge on some matters, although we're yet to discover any of them. He'd be better off sticking to them rather than writing nonsense and then insisting that he's right because a figment of his imagination with a Cornish accent said so.

When a couple of posters, I think a Spurs fan and a Gooner, found out that they'd both worked in the financial markets, everyone left them to chat about it as they were discussing stuff that was best known to them and little known to others. No doubt HIAG waded in there as the font of all knowledge as well!

In short, I think he's quite a disturbed individual but at least he's fun to take the piss out of!

What a pair of consummate professionals.

The commercial 'brains' behind the operation, who doesn't know who he's buying the place from and a Cornish builder who's not provided you with a fully costed building spec for you to refer to when talking to your prospective funders...

Instead you have to ask him if a random off the internet has spotted a fatal flaw in your combined business plan.

I'm embarrassed for you now. I'm blushing just thinking about the shame that you must now feel.

Even though I'm not an estate agent I take no offence to being called an estate agent. Some of my best friends are estate agents. We even had an estate agent marry into the family. It's not like the past when it was frowned upon to mix with estate agents and they had their own cafes and sections on the buses. Estate agents are people too. We actually have one on the United board.

I've also done alright out of a few estate agents so I'm not going to slag them off! There are good guys and ****ers in all walks of life and professions.

You windmill any faster, Stan, and your feet are in danger of lifting off the ground.

How do you know what I have and have not been provided with, Tobes?

At what stage am I at, in my discussions with the prospective funder?

What more can you tell me about this project?

Please, do not let your complete lack of any knowledge on this subject stop you from providing me with your replies, as the comedy gold element more than compensates.
