Game on dude.....

So we are back on the property looking at ladder.

Our original house is still on the market but there has been a lot happening.

A pipe let go and the place has been comprehensively flooded.

The Vendor has also engaged in some "improvements" cleared away some lovely mature trees to create, well, I am not quite sure what..

That is before I see the carnage in the house.

The result of this has been a revised bid from us which has gone down rather a lot from where we were last time we were bidding.

That is just as well.

Our buyer "has done his research" and he now assures us that our house is worth just over half what it was worth two years ago. He can "prove" it too using statistics.
There is a long standing saying about lies damned lies and statistics, this is simply not right. Statistics are just numbers, they cannot lie, it is people who produce statistics with flawed logic and sometimes with deliberate deception.

Fortunately I did rather a good stats course when I was in Uni and I can recognise fiddled figures then I see them.

Could be an interesting morning in the estate agents tomorrow.

Today though has been a lazy day, well no a lazy day and a day taking Lilly the beast into town. Lovely V8 burble and ready urge on tap.

Never mind miles per gallon how about smiles per mile.
