Thank you Chatty. Well, the price helped us make the decision too. We could have bought it, if we forfeited food and clothing for the next 30 years. I can't even skip a breakfast, so that solved that problem.
I sort of feel like the fox in that fable: The Fox and the Grapes . We can't buy that house, so I'm thinking of things like it's too far from shopping, hospital, and theatres anyway. You made some good points there.
