Buying a resale property - need my hand held!!

Blimey Tinto thats a tall order - send a message to Rixxy she is on the button for the Golden Mile - lots and lots of different urbs and because of where it is tends to command premium prices - whether there is anything that is sold under value there is another matter - be careful though because there are people out there who will say one minute from the Golden Mile and its up in bloody Nagueles or even on the top of La Concha (the mountain - great views on a clear day but hell of a commute)

(Personally I think that if somebody doesn't know where the area you ask about is, then they are unlikely to be able to answer your question anyway, so what the hell?

Talking of wine, Jack Handy (who ever he may be) once said:

Enough already!

Back to topic, kids. I just bought a re-sale today. It's a complete sh1thole and needs a LOT of imagination, but the view's to die for. Notary wasn't too stressful - lawyers and agents aside, and all went fairly smoothly.

There, that should keep the moderators happy!

I thought ferrets went up trouser legs, and that's NOT where you'll find my hand.

Anyway, it was me who needed to hold the lawyer's and agent's hands. They even forgot the bleedin' key!

KIn ell - not the first time - nor will it be the last - went to one last year the bank turned up without the cheques - had another one where the vendors bank was refusing to cancel the existing mortgage - wanted to get client to take on previous owners mortgage - like the Keystone Cops - absolutely farcical -

Ferrets only go down trouser legs if you force them and use the right bait - otherwise they feel most comfortable racing up drainpipes - have made a lengthy study of it when I gave up trainspotting and wrote a thesis on it - could forward a copy if you like

Better to turn up to one like we did only to be told by the sellers lawyer that the ex wife didnt have nie certificte (didnt need it in the old days) and he THOUGHT the bank would be ok about it.

And the lazy sod didnt even tell us this when we rang to confrim the signing was still on! So we went anyway.

So, wheres the wine - ready for a glass or two about now... and Ferrets - thats another story but many years ago living in Kent I had one, called nipper ...eeeee by gum, I remember it well - but next doors rabbit was rather frightened of it!

Oh yes I had one of those as well - he sent his girlfriend back in a taxi from Marbella to Torremolinos to fetch it, leaving me to sit with the stroppy spanish buyers and keep them from walking out.

Mind you this was after they asked for a reduction in the purchase price - AT NOTARY - as the furniture was included but they already had a double bed.... thought they could get 150 euros discount.

Give me strength!

LOL!!!

PM coming your way - this is gettting way to hot for public discussion. You know what I mean? Don't fancy getting banged up with Roca.

Got it, thanks. Will give him a call.

What does that "Gerry built" mean? (I'm too young to remember)
