10 more sleeps...

Yay!! Kaptain will be home soon! Anyway, I do have some major gripes that I would love to get off my chest.... the cost of buying a house - no, not the cost of the actual house... but all the "fees" and "charges" and "commissions", etc. I have forked out almost 10% of the cost of the house - on top of the cost of the house - to subsidise the attornies' lavish lifestyle and to contribute to the managers of standard bank flying around the world in private jets.... These exessive costs were never mentioned by the wonderfully friendly estate agent (who, might I add, drives a BMW 4-wheel drive!!) My folks reckon it is worth it, but I honestly think it is day-light robbery... Probably chose the wrong career path!!!! Ahhhh - that feels better!!! See you all very soon! K x

don't get me started on property... you think the charges (fees or commissions) are madness, just looking at the property market compared to 8 months ago, you'd be seeing anything from a 20% to over 300% price increase! did i say 300%? yes, it's madness. count your lucky stars that you now have your foot in the door...
