Luxury apartments for sale

On our way home from walking, George and I skirted round some new, posh flats. They look quite utilitarian from the outside but they're very expensive so I am longing to go in and see what is so special about them - although it's probably just the location and view. So as we passed, muddy-booted - and in George's case, muddy-everythinged - I said, 'Shall we go and ask to be shown round, George? I'll explain I'm an eccentric writer and you're my muse. The film rights of my novel are going to be sold for millions so we're looking for an investment property. What do you think, George? You and me? Shall we go in and ask?'
George sniffed and said, 'Will they have food in there?'
'It'll probably be plastic if they do.'
'Let's not bother then.'
'Okay, maybe next time.'

P.S. It was sunny and very warm out: I had to take off my coat. Walking up a big hill, sweating and panting, when you have a runny nose and a dry throat is not to be recommended. Oh, look, I think George's new bed is arriving!

Next time, leave George at home, dress to the nines, and go in pretending to be rich! I do that all the time. lol Let me know what the prices are - I'm always interested in property in the UK. I watch Kirstie Alley and Phil Spencer's shows here all the time. Love them!
