bluemonday Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 When viewing, potential purchasers are asked to wear tight jackets, cloth caps ( askew ) fall over in an amusing manner when viewing the kitchen and accidentally activate a number of domestic appliances. This will greatly annoy Mr Grimsdale, the estate agent. Bless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxman8180 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Bit of a mare for the agent involved. Yes, a nice fee if it sells, but how many weirdos are going to go and have a look just for the Sir Norman connection? Will they vet them somehow beforehand....... Imagine all the Albanians.......

thesultanofsheight Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Bit of a mare for the agent involved. I'm going to go and have a look around ... maybe i'll even get the chance to fall down the stairs in a hilarous way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mutley Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 http://search.issl.co.uk/detailslite.aspx?...ltspagenumber=1 It's nice but a lot of money for a 3 bedroom on 1 acre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 I may be leaving myself open to ridicule on this one, but who would buy the house on the strength on the Wisdom connection? I would like to suggest that anyone under 40 outside the Island would struggle to name a film of his. I saw one many years ago on the BBC but I can't remember the name. Tremendous bloke though. And I hope we don't have to wait until his death to see his films on tv again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
