Money laundering

[Ministry Of Silly Signings]

My brother's house sale fell through, a few years back, as the buyer wanted to pay the £10k deposit in cash. Apparently he still got paid in cash, and kept his money at home. Didn't keep any of his play slips and couldn't prove the source of funds. I've no idea how he'll go about purchasing a property going forward. There's a good reason as to why such stringent regulations are in place.

My mates old man had his house up for sale, value £220,000. Some family turned up to view it, had a carrier bag with £stacks in it, said they would buy, £ 200,000 cash. The seller said no, £220,000, they kept on saying`No,no, £200,000 cash !`. He managed to show them the door.
