It's those ******* absentee landlords, a.
Blimey, censoring bástárd is a bit strong.
IAHYK - obviously not there. Though as my tenant is terminating her lease six months early I shall soon only be absentee buggered by mortgage payment lord
It is 29 pages long A. Can I get a very brief summary?
It's censoring pęnis that bothers me. It's a legitimate anatomical term, ffs!
It's an academic paper, so it has to be long.
Summary: Basically the super-rich are modernising old properties in ways which the old Highgate professional and academic elites find distasteful and vulgar, and complex and expensive legal battles ensue between the old upper-middle classes with their sense of community and respect for the historical aesthetic, and the new furrin neoliberal oligarch and high finance types who object to these fuddy duddies standing in their way of doing what they damn well please!
Summary of the summary: It's Thatcher's fault. Again.
If the influx of the super-rich had anything to do with the opening of Ostuni - pretty much the first decent independent restaurant in north London - then the more the merrier.
Surely Morgan M pre-dated Ostuni?
Sorry, I meant the north London 'burbs. **** all in Hampstead or Highgate, that's for sure. I blame the kikes for not going out on Friday nights.
