Or maybe I meant sensibly? I don't know. I'm all confused now . Moving right along....on the page,that is ;)

Look - I don't take Colin to be suggesting that we respond to uncertain times in an ignorant or simplistic way,
Nothing wrong with simple if it floats your boat. It does feel like the media just lurve a good nasty though and agree that any contract should be binding so, sensibility could be the order of the day huh?

We made the decision, to live in a modestly improved 1930s farm pump shed. It might be a bit tricky to sell for big numbers. But thats hardly the point of home ownership, at our house.
Sounds like an interesting house you have there Steven. We have friends in hand built pole houses and 1/2 round barn conversions(with views to die for to boot) and they wouldn't consider any number big enough to sell. We had an idea once to sell but the more your house becomes your home, the more difficult it is to go.When I realized that the hard slog my other 1/2 put into this place was not just a reno,it was from his heart, it then became a bigger part of us. Neither of us plan to go anywhere in any hurry. We know we would make money to sell but what for? To walk away to do it somewhere else? To change town? To do it again?To buy up? I considered that seriously and couldn't find a health benefit so couldn't see the point. Home sweet home.:)

It appears these people never had the first intention of handling in good faith the money people invested with them.
yeah we will read more about them I am sure. First we saw Hanover (handover). I just see same shit different day, and how many other companies branch from this crowd?

We fixed (with 16 months remaining) knowing that what we negotiated, we knew we could afford ,no matter what the market did and to float in effect was a gamble that we couldn't budget for so it was security that we opted for and figured if the shit hit the fan we would still have a roof over our head. The thing for us is if we need to borrow more ,we are now in a position to afford to (but not something we like to do much anyhow) and what I learnt was that the going rate is negotiable when the time comes for renewal. I informed our bank last time that competition was prepared to offer better than what our bank was offering and they came to the party pretty quick on negotiating a good deal, and all on the phone.

OK, I'm being all reductive again, but it's not totally fanciful either.
Yo word .dat, yol. ayite?
Different languages are not always easy to translate into English and this is no different. To try to literally translate recognizable words is kind of pointless as they do not necessarily have the same meaning. Knowledge Bro! -
no-one is allowed to have an opinion.
What ! Is somebody wrong on the internet?

Was mightily amused to see Garth George this morning losing his shit over police actions, as well as the new Government in general.
I actually took a gulp and read that. (mainly because I am anti Judith Collins) I then wondered if George had had a good or bad Xmas ,it's so hard to tell. :)
