First, an astonishing claim in Sunday's Observer, that Jon Hunt might be considering buying back in. He sold Foxtons for £390m at just the right time. Now there's entirely unconfirmed chatter on the subject of him getting a foot back in the door cheap in order to help it meet its loan commitments.

In related - but different - news, the Rat and Mouse has had a number of emails from people claiming to be the driver of the Foxtons Mini filmed off-roading here. Obviously I wouldn't want to cast aspersions on the integrity of my readership... but there wouldn't be room in that car for all the people who've emailed. I demand proof. Would the real Foxtons rally driver please step forward?
