Hah yeah, I have been told what it used to be like.
Some bits are still a bit dodgy like but overall it has much improved.

It's just opposite new inns isn't it, I took the pushchair down there one day cos no one is suspicious of a mum and pushchair
Every time we walk round yours, to the station or to Maplins I think about it, never done it though. I'm not as innocuous as you & pickle...

I don't like modern and shiny. I like old and quirky and don't mind if it's a bit run down. I'm used to that!

oh. Well it looked all shiny and new. I couldn't see past that tbh
Like old gas fires and stripey wallpaper?

no, like old fire places & mantlepieces and proper wooden floors and a garden that's a bit wild, not perfect rectangles of bright green turf.

Joke is our house could be really, really lovely if she bothered to put effort into it. Shame it's a lethal death trap instead.

A slightly different question (kind of) - I'm pretty clueless about mortgages and stuff - but I mean, at the moment I live and work in London. Would I have to have a secure job set up in Birmingham before I'd be able to buy a house there?
The whole cross over with old job & rented flat in London & new house & new job in B'ham seems like it could be really tricky & complicated.

yeah that's what i thought. I have alot of belongings & furniture and stuff plus a cat though.
Oh well, this is all so hypothetical at the moment. I'd actually need a decent job to start with and have to talk to my boyfriend who'll probably think me moving means I want to finish with him.
