back dated grand designs

watching all the back dated shows which are sometimes inspiring and sometimes just crazy - but this story of the castle that was a boyhood dream I enjoyed but now find very very sad?

Yer link don't work, but traced the article, nowt sad really, the market has always provided a "get out clause", if only every dream had one of those.

Re: back dated grand designs

yes perhaps the other side of the dream - people get carried away with a dream - fine as dreams go but then the borrowing starts and starts and never stops and they are in debt for a long time. A lesson for the less rich of us!!
