Terrible, and a lovely haiku that understates the situation beautifully.

Still single at 37 and living at home, hanging onto mummy's apron strings to protect you from the big bad world how lazy can you get.

Thanks again Everyone.
We had bought our third house by 37 and were about to buy our fourth - though I'm not sure what that proves. However, I did like Derrick's comment, I must say.

I think I'm somewhere with you on that one, Dave. We had bought our first house at 21 and 23, my husband and I.
