![Houses of distinction 2517846532](https://2img.net/u/3715/63/70/88/smiles/2517846532.gif) Well, I never claimed to be dirt poor. I only read the FT to make myself feel rich. |

https://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-89748365.html Potentially lovely. You'd have to burn most of the furniture and all of the soft furnishings. Gardens could do with some more colour. Beautiful countryside. I'd visit. |

| You would be welcome! There are some lovely places in Suffolk, if I ever get enough money to buy one I will be too old to climb the stairs or go outside. |

| Without the flag, obviously... ![Houses of distinction Beaux+arts+mansion+victory+drive+savannah+copy](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/56d5eba959827ea77fb29ac4/56dc938c1ccbd170218f7962/56dc938c1ccbd170218f797e/1458774077041/Beaux+arts+mansion+victory+drive+savannah+copy.JPG?format=750w) But then I suppose if you pulled it down, folded it up neatly in a box, and sent it to the previous owners with kind regards, there would be an enhanced risk of reprisals from local torch bearers. |

| Probably my favourite movie house. I've always thought I'd be suited to this kind of Californian lifestyle, drinking and smoking into the parched night on my run down porch, while the radio annoys the neighbours, and random feral children ostensibly under my control get creative with chain link fences and go on motorbike joyrides around the area... ![Houses of distinction Maskmovie](https://hotcorn-cdn.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2018/06/18170905/maskmovie.jpg) Hanging out on the swings in the sun... ![Houses of distinction 12602793_f520](https://usercontent2.hubstatic.com/12602793_f520.jpg) Attending impromptu parties in the woods... ![Houses of distinction Ed43e58718baac3f731bf5f709bbedbc--harry-carey-florence](https://i.pinimg.com/236x/ed/43/e5/ed43e58718baac3f731bf5f709bbedbc--harry-carey-florence.jpg) |

| Is that New Orleans? We should definitely do that with our terraces. A grant of a grand each to buy the paint, and an agreement to remain two meters apart while listening to music with all the neighbours would be a productive use of time right now. And a lasting legacy to improve many a town that could really do with it.
More ambitiously, they could permenently seal off many streets and use the space as a communal planting zone for a riot of flowers and patches of help yourself home grown produce. And/or some of those micro forests that have been in the news. Keep the pavements on either side for door access obviously. Those who have to have a car, and we have to be realistic that many do need one, could be accommodated in an accessible space nearby.
We might suddenly find everywhere is far more attractive than we realised.
I have a thing for those Greek revival houses myself. |

| Yeah It's New Orleans. I like the fact that many of the homes in the working and lower-middle class neighbourhoods there were designed with ornate porches for the intention of giving the neighbours something nice to look at and enjoyed i.e. for their and the wider street's benefit rather than a feature just solely for the occupant. |

| Bath needs more bridges over the Avon. When I used to go there I had to sneak in the back way via Limpley Stoke. _________________ ' "Haven't got houses." Where do they live then?'
