    Jo-this is a very small step into fulfilling the Spanish dream-at the moment am being a bit sneaky but trying to get a realistic valuation and what an outsider thinks-then see where we go from there

    Wasn't there a recent TV series, 'How To Add 10000 to the Value of Your Home' overnight.

    There are some simple must dos to increase value here:

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/property/buyingsellingandmoving/7906602/Phil-Spencers-top-20-ways-to-add-value-to-your-home.html

    Not sure about 'pave over your front garden'. But it's a sad fact but most purchasers don't want to do a lot of work gardening.

    If you don't have time to do anything else:

    1) get a couple of cans of Magnolia and paint the living room, and as many other rooms as you can.

    2) house Cody in a kennels, and drench all carpets and upholstery with Febreeze; Any wiff of dog and you can kiss goodbye to 5 grand..

    LOL Geoff. That is very true. But that is Sammy on the left! I'm taking the pic! image

    Cody doesn't look like a dog that 'wifs'. How rude.

    Oh stoopid meimagecouldn't see because of the hat-looks very festive-any cracker jokes to tell and what was in them?

    Crikey Gary-life is complicatedimage

    Lottie, welcome, it's better for my waistline if I can share the crumpets.

    Bjay 'I hope it's only a phase' made me laugh.

    Geoff, are you planning a major crime hence the need for the Spanish bolt hole?

    All dogs whiff, in my experience!!

    When we were thinking of moving, showing estate agent around he took one look at my daughters bedroom and burst out laughing. Deep purple walls and bright orange ceiling doesn't sell houses apparently. Decorater came and had same reaction. In end had to have walls lined - only way to obliterate colours!

    It's just FloBear that our bread maker, that he has control of isn't very well so he decided to branch out on his own. Baker he is not, and it mkes him so angry. Just eaten one of lastest batch of pancakes - whoops - bread rolls - Does taste Ok but...

    Bjay, I thought bread dough needed (kneaded hoho) a good pummelling. Perhaps he could take it out on the product and enjoy better success.

  • Matty2Matty2 Posts: 4,817

    Aaargh!!!

    Have suggested he uses dough hook on mixer, too noisy he says. 

    Might show him up tomorrow,  Just hope I still have the knack and don't get a red face!image

  • FloBearFloBear Posts: 2,281

    My sympathies, bjay, my OH has moods when he's determined nothing will be right. (To be honest, so do I occasionally!)
    Maybe these would help. Includes handy visor to protect the baker from flying gobbets of dough ;- )
