In this case it probably just means 'new'.

Would "fucking pricey" suit sir better?

I'm sure they are. I wasn't commenting on their affordability, more the use of language in marketing and sales these days. Which I dislike.
I was looking at a property ad in west Norwood the other day and the estate agent had written that the area was benefiting from 'recent gentrification'. Which I think is a frankly stupid and disrespectful thing to say. These words lose their meaning when used so freely and without any thought to what they actually mean.

What's it got to do with him anyway?The Edge says:
Not him, the other one, Adam is it? I saw him backstage at a gig and he didn't have his arms in his jacket sleeves. The jacket (gold sequins) was resting on his shoulders. It took all of my might not to say a word.The Edge says:

I was looking at the back of the terrace earlier in the week (now the office buildings have been demolished). Looks like Shrub & Shutter may have a 2 storey annex at the back?

It won't take that long surely? They are being "released" in September!I remember they applied for that ages ago.
Now I've got the delights of the soundtrack of luxury apartments being built opposite me for the next year or so.

It is quite normal these days for developers to sell flats as yet unbuilt. "Released" means released on the market, not actually constructed in real bricks yet.

It's going to be lovely to have a new 'oiks keep away' gated road to complement the one in Brixton Square.

I hope they have uniformed staff like in Brixton Square.
P.S. some MP asked a question in the house today regarding Taylor Wimpey malpractice. Doesn't sound too promising for buyers.

I have to take a quarterly newsletter to a couple of members of a local society in there. There is a concierge office at the back where they hang out (normally only one is on duty at a time).
If you choose to make a delivery when the solo attendant has popped out for a sarnie you are buggered (so to speak).

It was only ever bodged up by the Fire Service and obviously Lambeth don't give a shit. They'd love to see the building disappear.
