    It's in Scotland, i used to live there, been abandoned for 3 years.
    In scotland there's a law that if a title holder passes then property goes to the Queen.
    So you gotta do it in the open for all to see, you gotta walk right up to that big door and kick the thing in.
    No-one knows what's past the front door, nor the back one for that matter, masks will be worn.
    I know this house but we've been strangers for 35 years and she's gonna need at least 10 years from me.
    I was a big fan of Indiana Jones as a child and had a bull whip, broke and sprained my wrist with that whip and backwards flipping outta trees, that's what i done at this ol' house.
    Less than 30 seconds run and you're in one of the most beautiful parks in scotland too.
    Diego scored with his hand against the English as i watched in a friends house down the road when me and my Chinese buddy used to hide from the acid rain inside an open-ended steel drum.
    KIds we're getting kidnapped and we had the coolest toys ever made.
    Fun times in the ol' house, and not so fun times of course, here i got my first pc, cpc 6128, my friend had the 464, the dawn of computing with the sinclair zx.

    Hi Danny. Wow man it sounds like you have tons of memories with your family home. One of my fondest memories in my grandparents home is playing with my TYCO Racing Tracks with my Grandad, Father and Uncles. Another great memory is my Grandmother cooking pancakes, scrambled eggs with cheese and sausages for dinner. That was always a treat!

    Whatever you decide with the house I hope you find peace and enjoyment. The cool thing about renovating is that you can make a home however preferred within your means.

    Here in my state if a home sits dormant with unpaid city taxes, the city can claim the home over time. I'm glad you're getting yours. I hope it flourishes to what you want it to be.

    The money tree
    You can marry you can steal and you can inherit, i was once told.

    You marry? you spend the rest of your time with that person
    You steal? you steal someone else's time they laboured for that money
    You inherit? you inherit someone else's money they spent their whole time on this earth making

    I'm starting to feel the money tree is connected with time.
    You want to work for someone else and make a certain amount then it's gonna take a certain amount of time.
    The money tree needs only time, to grow, each year, it grows and grows, but the seed, it's the seed that's the stickler.
    Cause not only must it be planted with care in the correct location, more importantly it must be planted at the correct time.

    In the abandoned house we got our first computer and was at this time we were introduced to computers, friends with spectrums and commodore.
    In clubs and school we had spectrums too, amazing time.
    I didn't go for consoles at all, never have apart from the switch i'm a huge fan of.
    In the abandoned house we were around 10, next to a massive park, a famous park, less than one minute to get there in the snow was fun.
