| | | For Sale: A Cottage near Exmouth I've seen 17th century 3 bedroom (I'm guessing from outside) with large garden in Devon is currently on the market. It looks nice with those old features.
Is there anybody interested in?
Oh, and it's called "Waverly".

| | | It sounds lovely. Does it have a dank dungeon? Can one see Minerva's bedroom window from the property?
I think all SYMers should chip in as much as they can afford and buy this for me. It is, after all, named for me. You will need to chip in extra so I can install tennis courts and a pool.
Thanks in advance!

| | | Sounds like a re-do. The question is, whether it was redone in the 20th century, or the 18th.

| | Waverly, it's in England. You cannot use the swimming pool 352 days a year.
You can't see my bedroom, but you can see me going to dish washing work every weekend.

| | Back off, Weasel!
This is Waverly Cottage, not Weasel Ranch. It will be me who watches as Minerva saunters off to wash dishes each weekend, wearing nothing but a sheer, flimsy toga.

| | Minerva, this cottage wouldn't happen to be on Dartmoor would it? Nice neighbours, if so

| | No, it's in Woodbury, near Exmouth. I live near Dartmoor, though.  Kind of midway between Exeter and Dartmoor.

One must know these things before they sign the proper documents
