[emmie]

the tv programme, does anyone watch it by any chance.

[emmie]

get out the nails scissors, daft isn't it

[quizzywig]

Sometimes - especially when Alastair does it. He's quite nice.

[emmie]

it was more the comment of leaves falling, her face was full of dismay, in a garden, people are odd aren't they.......

[Psybbo]

Emmie, I came in from the kitchen to find OH shouting at her

[pixie373]

I didn't see that one, but i think they often ignore what people say they want..." this is a bit over your budget, but..."
"you wanted two bathrooms, but..."
It must be difficult though, to find a house for someone else. It's a bit like matchmaking.

[choux]

emmie - I think she was weird rather than odd!

I smiled, imagining what the production team said after the first day's shoot :/

[emmie]

pixie its because she said she would have a problem with the falling leaves, in the rather beautiful garden, x

[emmie]

psy, got to admit i rather had a quietish word,.. x

A lot of these type of programmes use people who have been on other tv shows.

They keep them on their list and they pop up every now and then.

We used to watch it quite regularly but got fed up with houses so out of our price bracket we lost interest so stopped watching it. Likewise Place in the Sun.

I bet some of them never end up actually buying these places . .I look at some of the houses and think ..wow ...wish I had all that money for a house in the country and then they start picking everything to bits .
Oh dear there's a main road .Usually two miles away but nevertheless too near .I think some of them should just go and live on desert island .
They put me in mind of estate agent tourists .People who just like to nose around other peoples houses that are for sale to pass the time ...I've had a few of those ..lol.
