    House buying: shortest time between exchange of contracts and completion?

    I still have some stuff stored in the loft of a house that's just been sold, subject to contract / survey etc. I will need to rent storage space for it, which is going to cost me £100 or so a month. So I don't want to move it till I have to. There's no chain involved in the house sale -...

    House sale pricing

    Hypothetical situation: I arrange the private sale of a house, ie no agent involved. The property is valued at £170k. Can the vendor and I legally agree that the offical purchase price is say £120k, thus avoiding stamp duty and I pay the differential of £50k "behind the scenes"? TIA, David

    How do you get exterior house (emulsion?) paint off a car?!

    No, not me. A friend has fine flecks of white exterior house paint (we are guessing emulsion) on his bright red car. Long story. The paint has been there probably about a year, as the car has not moved in a long time. The car has been mechanically renovated, but close up the paint is...

    WOW! What a hotel!!!!! If any of you want a night away at somewhere rather prestigious, I can heartily recommend the Cliveden in Berkshire. Costs a lot, and is worth every penny. Local cuisine is almost 100% french though, so make sure you have the right palette. ;-) I managed to find a...

    A BMW driven by a 23 year old who lost control and after hitting various objects ended up slidding sideways on into a house. Fortunately the house occupants had just retired upstairs to bed. The car ended up in the hallway side on as shown here.
