LOL Richard, never a truer word spoken. Last time the euro got down to near parity, was it 5 years ago, we said yes we will sell and Mrs Rog, was listing out personnel stuff to keep. Not long after we walked into the house, looked at each other and said no we don't want to be doing that. So Richard ...

There is a positive side, I bought our house in Porty at 1.6€... in 2003. If you get a calculator out and I sold today at 1.11€, serious money, and yes we are thinking about it. Even if we only got what we paid for it.

You have to accept that you get what you pay for. Nothing is cheap, it is just good value. Monach did not play the game. Used them a few times and all I can say is absolute brilliant. But actually that is not what I wanted. Back in 2002 I flew "Go" (now easyjet) to Porty, £80 return. That ...

S'cuse my ignorance but what does OTA stand for.

Don’t put in any furniture that you wouldn’t have in your own home. If it’s not good enough for you, it’s not good enough for your guests. In fact you’ll probably end up removing stuff when it’s too tired for the let and using it yourself! Now that to me was pure brilliance.. summed it all up a tre...

Thank you Richard, sums it up as I see it. However, I am not a poor resident and feel that I should pay my way. Just noticed the resident bit, that was evident, so I may have to alter that as I as yet am not.
