BBC News reports that a garage in the Jesmond suburb of Newcastle is on sale for £30,000. Not a big garage, just one of those thingies for a single car with an up-and-over door. Now that’s a pretty silly price for somewhere to put a car, but the most alarming part is that according to the BBC
The property, which boasts a light blue up and over door, measures just over 17ft by 2ft[1] .
I’ve mentioned before that the BBC have trouble with numbers. Nice to see that they’re consistent.
[1] They’ll probably correct that later…[2]
[2] Update: and so they have. Apparently it’s 20ft not 2ft
