I went to the showhouse today as its only 7 doors off my house and had a little look round. I was very impressed as they reckon in 10 years or so time all council houses will look like that, has anyone else had a look?

Council houses?! How very common.

Yes I had a quick look around today, the house is just about up to the standards of the mid 1990s, electric shower and gas central heating are so yesterday, and I couldn't believe how old fashioned the taps and fittings are in the kitchen and bathroom.

I used to be a toff once, then my mam and dad split up and mam couldn't afford to pay a mortgage, I was only 14 at the time so couldn't have a full time job so unfortunately we ended up in a council house. I broke my heart when my mam told me I was moving into a council estate but there wasn't anything I could do about it and now I love living where I am, i have the best nextdoor neighbours you could ever wish for!!!
