I’m watching Fantasy Homes by the Sea before going to work. “Fantasy” must have changed its meaning since last time I looked. It now seems to mean “imperfect”, “badly decorated” or “adequate”. They are nice enough but they don’t get my imaginatiob going.
The interesting thing is that they have been to Cromer and are now in Sheringham. So have I, in my search for piers.
They are just looking at beach huts. You can buy one for just £59,000 and rent it out for £60 a day.
They are now looking at a cottage at Bacton. It has flint walls, pantiled roof, a walled garden and seals on the beach. As fantasy homes go, it’s pretty good, though I just looked Bacton up on Wiki – with a gas terminal, a takeaway and a holiday village I may have to reduce the fantasy rating.
The woman on TV doesn’t really like it. She wants to redecorate and remodel. Or “rip it all out and start again” as she just said. I predict that, as usual, they won’t like it enough to buy it.
