We are staying a friends multi million pounds house this weekend, and it’s mad the way everyone stares at you !!

[Lardlizard]

When they see you on the balcony and when they see you drive in and out the gates

Wish I was a multi millionaire too !!

sorry, but that don't impress me much.

You do realise that the area that house is in is already affluent, right? They’re staring at you because you so obviously don’t fit in. Not because they’re coveting your lifestyle. They already have ‘the lifestyle’

Apart from me staring at a non-posh balcony, I also went for a walk on Wimbledon Common where I stared in an unabashed fashion at the uber-expensive houses. And when the electric gates opened, I positively gawped. Doesn’t everyone?

@Lardlizard

It’s because it’s at a seaside destination and loads of people trying to park everywhere l, that’s why it’s not secluded, because it has amazing views

I’m so jealous ! 🤣but I’m going to enjoy this 🍾🍹😎☀️

How's Harry and Sandra holding up? Could you pass my number onto Jamie?

Sounds fabulous OP enjoy

They’re probably wondering why the staff are sitting on the balcony, OP. They can smell the poverty off you.

You should pick the nicest looking carpet in the house and have it away to your home.

i'd enjoy it too OP

it's quite an experience isn't it?
Experiencing/feeling how the 'other half' live?

God, there's some proper nobheads on MN.
Enjoy your weekend, OP

@neonjumper yep, totally obvious where the OP is.

''Multi million pound house'' = A shoebox in West London.

When I walk down expensive roads I often like looking at the houses.

A friend has a Ferrari, I've had a few lifts. It certainly does feel like people stare at that, not great when I'm clumsily climbing in & out!

Enjoy the weekend and the experience OP.

Crinkle77 that has to be Canford Cliffs or West Wittering? The latter isn't far from me at all, we were in Itchenor yesterday and the houses there are stunning, and I stare because I love big houses, not because I wonder who's in them, having said that, Kate Winslet lives in West Wittering.

Sandbanks?

So, knowing there are people who are on furlough, or on the list for redundancy and knowing that there are millions of people who have lost loved ones to coronavirus and haven't been able to mourn them properly or that there are people who are anxious that their children may not be at school in Sept, still doesn't matter to you and you feel the need to post a pointless thread that nobody actually cares about.

Seriously...

Have a bloody marvellous time!

@romeolovedjulliet

sorry, but that don't impress me much.

'don't' ?

@sqirrelfriends

I once opened the door to a man flogging fish. He asked for my parents, I said "they dont live here". Then he asked for "lady of the house" (seriously), I said "that's me". I had terrible hormonal spots at the time, hair on top of my head and an old hoodie on. I think he thought I was either a grumpy teenager, or the cleaner. I was 24 or 25 at the time.

Bog standard house, albeit a largish family one. I guess I just didn't fit his perception of who he thought would live here.

That exact same thing happened to me, only I was 35!!!

Asking to speak to me mam... ‘Mate, I am the Mam’

😂😂

My

Ah, OK, you are at Sandbanks.

Get your binoculars out and spot the Nudists across the water on Studland

so its a posh place where anyone can park on the road

bit annoying that-id want a private road for sure

wonder if harry has the same problem

What you haven't told us is that you have two heads, bat wings and scaled feet...hence the staring.

Enjoy the stay op!

I know what you mean, when I lived abroad my best friends were mega rich and whenever we’d go off for the weekend in their German limo (subject to 500% import tax in that country at the time) people would crane necks to see if there was someone famous in the car, it was very odd I remember
