TB Unregistered Posted: Jan. 22 2003, 13:43 Yeah shame it's not on the Hampton site. Would have been a buzz to see inside it and what it looked like.  Still, if you have a spare £1,600,000 in your back pocket you can buy a house in the same road as Mike (see Hamptons site: www.hamptons.co.uk).  Type in the post code HP8 and look at properties between £1 million and £2 million and there it is).  I wonder if this is the house that was formerlly owned by Noel Gallagher (he also lived in Nightingales Lane at one point).
