My sister was invited to go on a new programme with Kirsty and Ohil as she was having poblems selling her flat. As soon as they approached her then the flat sold - typical!

I was nearly on Escape to the Country but we were considered too boring ie - we hadn't recovered from a bad illness, didn't keep Shire horses or want to build a plane in the garden - we just wanted to move to the country!

My Friend had her front room done on Real Rooms with that Simon Bhaji blokey.......it was a mess! You could really see that they'd done it all in 5 mins flat!

Fio2, do you mind if I ask how you got started? My DW would really love to get into that, even as a hobby.

happydaddy, just by accident. We went for a cheap house firstly, which was repossesion, sealed bids. Did it up from scratch, sold and moved into similar and so on and so forth. We ahve found it is location that makes you the money (not that we have made loads ) This house should make us quite a whack though....maybe.....if it ever gets done. It is a nightmare with kids I tell you

THere is an MNer wh's been on Life Laundry isn't there? Not a property prog, I know, but it has a house in it

HappyDaddy · 05/05/2005 08:08

I bet it's a real challenge with the kids to look after. Thanks a million, Fio2.

Yes he is attached, sadly

I know this because my hairdresser is a bit light in the loafers and fancies him madly.

I told him he was straight, he refused to believe me so I rang his agent and asked them out right.

Married with children.

I had some of the furniture from my shop on one - was supposed also to be film in the shop of them selecting it but Justin or Colin was having an off day reputedly and they didn't want to film. They bare exactly like they seem on screen, camp and grumpy. It took them so long to do up and sell the house that they had the furniture for months. The shop front appeared in a panning shot for about a nano second!

The programme was Millionaire Property Experiment

They don't pay but promise to include contact details on the BBc website and in the book but didn't do either! The researcher was very nice though, he popped in to see me a few times when he came to dust the house and mow the lawn! And took me round the house.
They don't actually do a lot of choosing the stuff they put in they just go to the nearest shops - I was about 20 yards away and so was another shop they borrowed stuff from.
