to ask you for a small loan?

I've seen a house I really want to buy!

If 675,000 Mumsnetters could just lend me a pound for, say, 6 months, I'd be sorted Grin. That would give me enough time to get my house up to scratch for selling.

Or just 135,000 of you lend me a fiver?

Please, please, please oh please! Am good for the money, promise.

Oooh, MI, we'd be nearly neighbours. How marvellous. And you could come round to claim your fiver back plus interest in the form of wine/gin/coffee.

Cos I'm good for it all.

To make your dream a reality, I would chip in a £5. £10 if I can bring the brood for an overnight stay when the place is habitable Grin we are all house trained

And if you don't meet your target you can always put any donated money towards doing up your own house to sell it quicker!

I've just done the laundry and emptied £1.74 out of various pockets - you are very welcome to it.

Awks · 12/05/2017 20:59

The brilliant thing about this house is that it has a nice separate space for guests to stay (hard to explain without giving it away). So I could do a bit of free air bnb ing for my most generous donors. Might have to ask for £20 from anyone who wants to take advantage of that.

set your page up! You've pretty much got a billy bookcase for your new home paid for if nothing else Grin

AppleAndBlackberry · 12/05/2017 21:13

I'll give you a pound, you should definitely do it. Keen to see how far it goes.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 12/05/2017 21:14

Ohb0llocks · 12/05/2017 21:18

I'd sling you a quid op

BaggyCheeks · 12/05/2017 21:21

I'd give you a pound for that - where's the harm?! Grin

mygorgeousmilo · 12/05/2017 21:21

Garnethair · 12/05/2017 21:23
