Why sell home

I'm slightly perturbed over an issue with a member of staff in one of the open plan offices I work at.

The person (interesting traveller) has recently sold his house - I'm not sure of the details but he has sold it without finding a new home for himself (not a great move - pardon the pun). He is complaining that he can't find a suitable dwelling matching what he currently has, this includes a nice big garden, a large garage that connects to the back garden, lovely back door entry. The problem he says is that he can't find anything to match that and ideally seeing as he is having to buy a new house he would like an extra room (currently has 2 bedrooms).

I do wonder why he even sold his current house, he states its perfect, it a great location and he wants exactly the same (extra room would be nice but not essential).. he needs very tall rooms, an old victorian style stately home. Bit bizarre seeing as he's only 5ft 6! - Although questions have arisen in the department if he does actually live alone like he states.

Some stories have contradicted this, as he usually refers to "we" rather than "I" - Not that it matters and who cares (before someone puts a comment about it being none of my business - he raised the worry in finding a new home, not me!) I believe the spare room he needs is for a dungeon like feel to the home, I've seen him talking about ordering sheet rolls of latex. Which did raise a question a while ago about his eyes, he had a reaction to latex so not sure why he would approach the substance again.
Again I think it's linked the the tall, shadowy figure he lives with. Although others have said he lives with his mother. There was talk of the extra room being used as a Walk-In Tanning room fully fitted with hand wash dispensors - I'm not really sure what thats about?
Why would you sell your home without having something else organised - his collegues are talking about trying to band together

Excuse me? squarebear -what exactly is your issue? -there is no blog?
I think it is absolutely brilliant, carries the mark of genius, a perfect blend of sexual deviation and pragmatic unintelligibility.
My issue is that you are trying to trick people. Why not just say if you are looking for funny answers.

Daffy, I'm impressed....The blog you are referring to is outdated - was quite some time ago and I'm not actually the owner of that blog... (nice tidy sum)
Square - I dont "trick" people - nor do I want funny answers - how can anyone manipulate a question to "trick" people.... for god sake, has the world gone mad???
Do I know you square?
How would I know if you know me. I'm not Mystic Meg.

Who else ISN'T mystic meg, you can own up on here, it's completely confidential.
I'm not Mystic Meg. I'm Septic Peg. Allegedly.

i'm loving the tall shadowy figure, i'm imaging death stalking about the house ala terry pratchett
Scanning .... that's an awful lot of typing for a 'work colleague'.

Come on now .... you can tell us ... are YOU that five foot six homeless person?

If so, worry not. All the good peeps in CB will chip in and buy you a cardboard box.

Teh tall shadowy figure could be the mother of course - We've tried to find out but to no avial, he's generally a quite person except when he goes team bowling... he tends to relax a bit more then (the leg kicks out a bit when he bowls)
You live in a dream world.

Mrs Chappie - I know it was a fair bit of typing the final line even got cut off - I got a bit carried away..

Unfortunately I'm not that homeless person - how many homeless people have you seen using a PC (even in an internet cafe?) let alone wanting to post a question on here - most are looking for their next feed, drink or a can of meths...

Very kind of you to offer to chip in though - much appreciated, are you sure you're not called meg?

Why? Do you need a real life instead of making all this bull up?
