and they give my wife money

You're doing this bit wrong.

I was JUST gonna post that one!

Surely someone flagged up what a horrible little shitbag that child seems like in their fucking minging condescending ad.

THAT'S A COMPUTER! THAT FUCKING THING YOU'VE BEEN STARING AT ALL DAY YOU UNINTERESTING TIT DRIP!

I like your pink bits

It is, are you putting in the kitchen yourself?

Plumbing no. As gas/water will need moving. But units and stuff probably will do. I did current kitchen. When I say I, I mean my mam's husband did.

I did IKEA and worktop express and fitting for approx 3-4

Yeah did Ikea on house we just sold.

Anyway...

Offer accepted (5% below asking). Sad.

Selco

Bookmarked. Is it not just trade only?

I need budget kitchen ideas & inspiration. One bed apartment. Open plan living room/kitchen is approx 20ft by 15ft. So it's not gonna be big. 4-6 units maybe, plus cooker. Could be one wall, or an L-shape.

Who's got something impossibly good?

Let's say three grand. Give or take.

On to the buying merrygoround I go. Sale due to complete on 9th Feb. Sad. Need a place quick so resolved to stay in Manchester for now and go for a flat. Sad. Not a house. Sad.

Offered 8% lower on a place in Didsbury. Buyer wants closer to asking. Have increased. So it's now 5% lower. Sad.

Well, that's all a bit good. I presume you do it for a living, 'cos it's far too good for your average house fellow.

Did you guys do these things yourselves? With your own hands?

Lovely. Very appealing lines in your hall.

edit - Did you lower the door frames?

And a nice big pervy mirror in the bathroom.

Good lord, I didn't think I could hate their ads any more. Then this.

Our 3 bed terrace, small garden, sold in Old Trafford/Whalley Range (M16) for £240k. It's about 10min walk down to Chorlton, so a good periphery area.

In Chorlton, you'd have to add about 100k+ to that. For example, this is probably similar size to what we sold, but with a slightly bigger garden and it's slap bang in middle of Chorlton http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-70102778.html

Most desireable area of Chorlton is Beech Rd. And Chorlton Green. Maybe 350k upwards could get you something nice.

In Didsbury, probably looking at £400k upwards. There's Didsbury Village and West Didsbury. Both nice, with bars & restaurants. Both similarly priced. Maybe West Dids a bit more.

e.g - West Dids 4 four bed, not slap bang in West Dids, but it's a 5min walk http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-52267185.html

e.g - Dids village 3 bed, http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-62880508.html

I'd go these areas depend on budget, for 3 or 4 beds:

Old Trafford - 180k to 250k
Whalley Range - 200k to 300k (bit of crossover in these two areas)
Heaton Moor - 325k to 400k
Chorlton & Didsbury - 350k anywhere up to a million hahah, a million pounds (more beds)

I'm not up to speed on other places, but yeah Levenshulme, Cheadle, Altrincham worth a look. Sale and Stretford border Old Trafford, so some cross over there again. Withington and Fallowfield are primarily student areas. But Withington borders Didsbury, and it's possible to find similar size houses for a bit less dosh.

How do fizzy... I'm a writer too, been living in South Manchester about 15 years. What type of property would you be looking for?

I've just sold my house, and am looking for a new place, so got a decent grasp of prices etc at the moment.

What guarantee does the buyer or the lender have that the bank will not close, planning permission go in for change of use and the premises re-open as a bar/club, or chicken shop, or undertakers?

Good point.

(I could tell the lender that the bank would never close, 'cos the area is known as 'four banks', with four banks on each corner of a junction, and if it became a chicken shop, well... you couldn't call it 'three bank and a kansas chicken' could you... no way)

Mortgageability & saleability question for resident experts:

Would an apartment above a bank be viewed in the same way as above 'shops'? ie - More troublesome to get a mortgage on because lenders view it as difficult to sell in the future.

Why do you want to hurt me so?

Tis true. But I wasn't planning on 'trading' or owt, just holding a couple of coin types for a while. See if globalthermonuclearwar brings around the end of paper money and get rich and buy the nicest falloutshelter in the wasteland.

Have managed to purchase through Kraken, and am finding it now works fine for me. Initial deposit was a bit of a ball ache. But verification was under 48hours. Bought ripple. And it was very easy to move that to my ripple wallet. Cost was 0.02 ripple, so pretty good I think (??)

Have sent them a message through their website. Thanks for the offer - I'll DM you if I need to take you up on it.

This is the most infuriating thing I've ever tried to do (buy crypto currency).

Does anyone use Cryptomate? I'm trying to buy ripple on there and I just get a buffering screen when I click to confirm the order.

EDIT - re: Kraken. I registered. Took about 24-36 hours to verify. Shitter to tranfer euros to though. Cost a tenner. And didn't transfer enough to buy the coin I wanted 'cos there's a frigging mininum order amount. So it'll cost me another tenner. Bastards. Think they'd have a simple warning in place to prevent that shit, given all the malarky to sign up to these sodding shitting fuckers.

Ha, I had found some info on Toast, and the shitty UI did scare me off a bit, despite positive comments. Maybe I'll have another look. Cheers .

I've looked at a few, lots seem to have a backlog, but I've joined cryptomate as that sells the two I was thinking about.

Looking at rippex for the ripple wallet. But ultimately getting something like the nano s ledger to store all coins offline.

It's a right headfuck. (especially this bizness of needing 20 ripple to open your ripple wallet or whatever)

Any trusted/recommended wallets for ripple?

(@Stonehedge) I might chuck a few pennies on Crown and Ripple. But I guess I can't use the Crown wallet for both.

Anyone bought Ripple?

Heldring & Fettled_nuts - cheers for the replies.
