  4. lol! I love fresh air so this might be just the sort of place I should be keeping an eye out for! Bonus, I could photograph birds without leaving the living room :)

  5. "Bit of a fixer-upper". You ever worked as an estate agent? (real estate... one of those US/UK language barriers)
    You gave us a good laugh this week.

  10. I say I feel that this advert is a tad inaccurate. Large house? Surely bijou cottage? So I'll put an offer in on that basis. My 140 is here

  11. Kinda looks like my place after my husband starts one of his "projects"...

    Nah, that place is nicer. :)

  12. 'large country home' - that's a bit of an exaggeration, it's more of a small cottage. Estate agents, eh? (Realtors, you folks across the pond call them, don't you?)

  13. lol. just a bit of work...nicely played g!

  14. Ha ha, that was funny... Any one to buy yet?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Yes I'll buy it, thanks! -however- I already have :

    I adore wide open windows and doors
    my mossy beds and floors

    climbing down from a loft on spiral stairs
    share a warm fire and humble fare

    (When it is two sets of 2 lines
    the counter comes out right!)

  16. I would have posted it as "Antique, aged stonework for sale. Expensive but worth every pound. Will have to move them your self"

    ReplyDelete
  17. We had very similar ideas on this one G-man! LOL

    ReplyDelete
  18. Love the pitch! You MUST be in sales, G - if not, you should be, 'cause you're a natural!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Everything has value today...except Man...

    ReplyDelete
  20. Ha! G-Man..I've seen realty ads like that...so funny
    buyer beware
    Just a note to make you nuts...
    Character means everything- letters, spaces, and punctuation...
    That's why I use the Design 215 Character counter that Susan suggests....
    Glad to meet you and your sense of humor

  21. A "bit" of a fixer upper? Maybe if a garden was what you were trying to buy!

    ReplyDelete
  22. But wouldn't it be so cool to have property that included those old walls?

    ReplyDelete
  23. Hilarious! We think alike. Oh, those deceptive real estate guys and gals.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Oh that looks like just about my budget! I'll take it!

    ReplyDelete
  25. you know this is a joke but i love happening across these sorts of places. love the old stonework.

    ReplyDelete
  26. By 'priced to sell' I hope they're asking ten bucks! LOL

    Then again, I always wanted sky lights...

    ReplyDelete
  27. great pic and great story! Whenever I get my home computer up and running I'll have to give this Monday thing a try...;)

  28. G~Man now this was good. I know a couple of places where you'd see this for sale offer.

    ReplyDelete
  29. I still think it's a lovely real estate - for faeries...
