Really? Brian's been accused of violating copyright law?
Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

Does it break forum rules if I advertise and post a link for my parents house for sale? There may be a local member of the forum (or they may know someone) that's looking for a beautiful lakeside house in the country.
Thanks

You just need to be more sly.
You should have posted a story about how sad you are that your parents are selling a beautiful home on the _____ Lake and how some of your best memories in life came from growing up at nn ___ Road and that you are insulted that your parents are only asking nnnnnnn for such a treasure trove of irreplaceable family memories.

Thanks Well, Cam, it's been more than 72 hours without a public response at all, let alone a "nay." I'd say you're good to go. BTW, How many beds/baths? One or two stories? What part of Peterborough? frpl? hdwd fls th-out? d & d, any WTW? Sq. ft? Parking? Yard? How far from schools? Etc., etc.? No, this is not an ad, really. I PERSONALLY am dying to know the answers to these questions. Plus, I really like your folks.

Well, here it is - linky. I never thought I would get so emotional when my parents put it up for sale. I knew it was coming, but it still really sucks. It's a beautiful place to live. I wanted to keep it as a cottage (it is in the heart of cottage country) but it's just not feasible. Peace

I did see that Cam. Although just yesterday. I rarely go into Facebook anymore but yesterday I was pretty, 'clears throaght' tired after a very late night out for the ECMAs East Coast Music Awards. So I needed something mindless during to do for a while.
It sounds like a beautiful spot. I can imagine the memories there would be like postcards.
I went through the same thing when my parents sold our house. Beautiful, 3 story, century home that my Dad bought for an absolute steal (we were just a shade above poor at the time.) Since he was a kid, he had been spending a lot of his time doing all the handyman work for the three ancient sisters who lived there. They barely paid him ('barely paid us' as I got old enough to cut the grass, paint, etc.) but it paid off in the end as he was practically handed over of the nicest houses in town.
I remember talking myself out of buying it. It was too far from work, especially for Sharon who did shift work as a nurse at the time and I knew heating it was like a mortgage all of it's own. Still, it was home I'm hoping it's still around and goes for sale if I ever retire.
