Lorna and Derek have been together for three years - they have no pets and no children, so don't share their home with anybody else! The couple bought their two-bedroom detached home in 1995 for £69,000. Back then, it was part of a new estate. The property is just off the main high street in Alexandria, behind a recently converted shopping outlet. Lorna and Derek are currently in the middle of decorating the interior and hope to have the property valued once this work has been completed. They are hoping to get in region of £95,000 to £100,000 for the house.

A conservatory has been added to the house but despite having grand designs they have done nothing to the back garden. Lorna and Derek did save up some money last summer to spend on the garden but at the last minute decided to go to Hawaii instead! Several neighbours have commented that work needs to be done on the garden and Lorna now realises she will not sell the property whilst the back garden remains a muddy mess.
