I HAVE to raise 4 million for this.There is no way I am ever going to be able to raise that much myself so I ask you generous lot to help.

£100 isn't much in the grand scheme of things, to donate and between you all, you could make me very happy.


Thanks

Only if I can stay in the gatehouse/tower.

That sounds like a very reasonable request. I have £100 just sitting here and I have no idea what to do with it.
Send me your bank account details and I'll transfer the money via my nice uncle in Nigeria who will also be interested in sending you some money.

Beautiful house! Imagine being the person who is having to sell it. Sad

Were due a 'tax rebound' of £1200 as soon as we click on the link in the email the people at the Inland Revenue sent us and fill in our bank details and employment history. As soon as we get the money I'll forward you your £100.

No, because the bedroom is hideous.

I will lend you £110 for this if you promise to buy some plants for the conservatory.

You are both bvu. One kitchen (Dorset) has a kitchen that gives me a migraine, the other (Edinburgh) needs to have a basket of sunglasses as you enter the kitchen - all that White.

Find a perfect house with a perfect kitchen and I'll happily send the £100

It's vaile, OP.

I'm going to do you a favour and NOT send you £100. Imagine having to clean that house! You'll do yer back.

Plus, it looks like a house from an American television set, for when they have to pretend to be filming in an "English" house. Like what normal English folk live in.

As long as once you've bought it, you don't ask us for the £25k a year that it will cost you to run it ......

HelloSweetie · 03/10/2011 10:29

I have accounted for the running costs Panic. If each of 1 million MNers gives me £100 I'll have plenty left over to redecorate the kitchen and master bedroom, staff it and keep it running for a while.

If you forward me £100 I will invite you to the housewarming.
Thanks

Looks like it might be a bit draughty. Will send you some a coulple of vests instead of the $100.

We could buy Mumsnet Island for that. And be safe from Zombies.

Very cunning.

Ok, it's on its way - once I've had my lottery winnings through from The Netherlands. Apparently all I have to do is give them my bank details and the money's all mine....!

I never get emails like that. All my spam is trying to get me to buy viagra or make my non-existant cock bigger. :(

It must be mine.

how the bloody hell am i going to raise 4 million in this financial climate? and then we'd have to move counties, and jobs, and schools, and stuff. and would the cats settle in? and what shade F&B should the kitchen be?

When I've sold Microsoft (why do people persist in believing that that Gates chappie owns my company?) I'll send you the money. In halfpennies.

Yes, I know they are not legal tender any more but it's the thought that counts!
