Thank you, Steve!
I have been trying to find an easy-to-navigate website with real 
estate listings for any part of Great Britain just for grins and 
giggles.  I would live in the US, and dream of visiting England some 
day.  I frequently watch BBC America and am facinated by the property 
related shows.  I especially enjoy "Homes Under the Hammer" 
and "Location, Location, Location".  Now I can cruise through the 
site you listed and dream. ;D
I always enjoy your posts.  Thanks for the information.
