I know you could easily paint over it but I can't see anything else in that house. Just gives the impression of being cheap and chavvy and distracts from everything else.

They love a recliner.

And hosting conferences by the look of that table.

That's weird with the kitchen on the first floor. You'd have to lug all your groceries upstairs.

Ooo look at me. I've never lived in a first floor flat :lol:

Bold use of chickens in the marketing photos.

Shows the madness of supposed better "free range" eggs, my analogy is for a chicken to find outside is like plonking someone down in the centre circle of the SOL when its all packed for a gig with no knowledge of an exit to outside even existing and expecting them to get outside. oh and we've planted a few trees so its now woodland hens, when its a barren ground rather than the woodland meadow that the woodland hens image counjers. Reading the Red Tractor/RSPCA welfare standards was one of the main things that sent me down the plant based path as the differences between free range and normal isnt that big. Factory farming just awful across the board and then them hens after a year of so end up in pet food or rescued and are in the main in a terrible state.

Rant over should probably stick that to the veganuary thread ;).

You could always rescue some chickens and do it yourself. Then you are in charge of their welfare :)

In other news that many including possibly @Some Random Guy might find interesting...

Nornally they get sold off for a couple quid each so in essence even rescuing you prolonging the cycle as the farmer gets cash back to start a new flock. On top of that for every laying chicken another male day old chick has also been either ground or gassed to death as they are useless to the industry, so I feel better out of it. I get eggs for my partner off mny sister who does have some backyard hens which is about the best am going to get.

Would also love the pratchett house.

So you're still getting them then. You're not totally out of the industry... So to speak.

Anywho, this is a charity near us. They rescue hens from battery farms etc. Mrs K's Mam (don't be ridiculous) must have had about 10 over the years. The difference in them when they've been given a decent life compared to what they started with is remarkable.

Yeah my sister had rescue hens, from the local "Happy Egg" place and the state of them were awful couple of them were so bald could almost put then in the oven without plucking them. Your right not totally out of it as my partner doesnt follow same diet/lifestyle as me so I have to make some compromises (and I do cook for here as well), but where do try to get as best welfare meats and eggs as can either from sister or the local butcher who has on where the meat is sourced locally. My cousin is a sheep farmer so some stuff from him where know they havent been shipped hundreds of miles and have been outdoors for their life.

I have actually 😁

It's different when you live in a flat and everything is upstairs though!

Agreed. Very odd. My ex lived in a duplex (I think that's what they were called).
Open the front door and you've got the bathroom to the right and bedroom in front of you. Up the stairs to an open plan living room/kitchen.
It was like a hamster cage. Nice enough if it's just you or maybe 2 of you, but you'd outgrow it very quickly.

These houses are dotted around where I grew up. They look like a bungalow at the front but a house from the back. They have a large ground floor with two downstairs bedrooms, then a small first floor with two bedrooms and a bathroom.

By comparison. Just shy of a million notes to live there.

There's something a bit odd about the price of that Island house like. I know it's Lancashire, so not like London prices, but it's still relatively cheap for the size of the place, and the land (not that I could afford!).

Edit - I've just read the details - there's five other properties on the iste - so you will have neighbours.
