Comes from the Soviet Union where there was one sink between 10 families and a single cold water tap that worked for one hour per day with a thin dribble if you were lucky.
And still he moans.Hard Brexit now!

Hot water in Soviet union did not work on summers (maintenance apparently), but other part of the year it had to work because otherwise there will be no central heating (meaning CENTRAL, not boiling water inside your own house).

For a small fee you can upgrade your taps.
2 bedroom apartment for sale in Harborne Central, Harborne, Birmingham, B17, B17
If you can't afford that, well, suffer two taps you pauper!
PS a bit of negotiating would get that down to £150K I'm sure. Better than renting. Property only ever goes up etc etc.Comment
