A couple of weeks ago I had a pop at the Governor of the
Bank of England for being so negative. Well he's been replaced so hopefully the
new bloke will have a more uplifting determination about him as we need bankers
to stop moaning and start lending. The market is set to go and it does appear
that the confidence is returning but banks are not making easy for people
unless they have a large deposit. I still think the people who caused this mess
should be the ones to sort it out!
November was a good month in Bradleys, we had auction
successes many fold with our SWW auction selling very well, car parking spaces
in St Ives selling over 50K a piece and making the national headlines and our
Modern Method of sale by on-line auction continuing to go from strength to
strength. In fact the only thing wrong with November or should I say 'Movember'
was the facial hair seen sprouting from a few of the normally clean shaven
chaps around the company. The biscuit was certainly taken by Mark Eaton the
Company Senior DEA who if he wants me to give him money will need to submit a
photo of the said 'Village People Biker' moustache for inclusion in this blog
next time.
We have our Bradleys Conference this week so that will
dominate the week and everyone will feel fully informed by the end of Wednesday
and on Thursday I am off to London to attend the Sunday Times Estate Agency
Awards.
