    Don't be silly smithy, you'd have to have your head in the sand to think it isn't true.

    My father bought his first house in 1959 for 1,800 pounds, when he earnt 1,100 pounds p.a. And his next house in 1964 for 5,500, when his pay had gone up to 1,800. Mum was disabled, so never worked.

    How many people buy their first house on one salary nowadays?
