I am genuinely surprised that more upstairs ceilings dont collapse with all the junk carefully spread over the joists in a lot of suburban houses.

Spent 6 months living in our motorhome in Ukraine. Said to SWMBO why do we need our house in England filled with all that cr*p? Back living in it now. ;D ::)

We have had the house up for sale...lots of interest, but from people who have to sell theirs first !!! Interesting thing, we are in a three bed semi, and there are only two of us, but moving to Brakkers , we can ironically buy a detached house with four bedrooms and put a very large wodge of cash in the bank. Would like a bungalow, but not many for sale at the price I want. If I buy like for like, I will end up even richer, richer even than TB !!!!! ;D ;D
Took the house off the market for the Christmas period, but swmbo is talking of putting it back on next week. I don't think there is much movement at the moment, as the Estate agents know its going back on, but have not phoned to say anyone is looking for a house around here :(

Coming up to 4 years since I moved from Nowff Lhaanndun to West Wales. Not downsizing, actually somewhat upsizing. Still have unpacked boxes full of crap knocking about. Mostly books! Why T F keeps books? Well not worth a divorce to ask about that. Besides there may be questions asked about my CD collection  ::), not to mention my drum kit  8)

BUT, coming back to the point. I can can see the day when we are unable to deal with a big house.

The system is only as good as its weakest link.  And poor Terbs is not known for his strength ;D
