Byline: ANI

London, Nov 22 (ANI): Scottish singing sensation Susan Boyle is snubbing Snubbing is a type of heavy well intervention performed on oil and gas wells. It involves running the BHA on a pipe string using a hydraulic workover rig. Unlike wireline or coiled tubing, the pipe is not spooled off a drum but made up and broken up while running in and pulling  luxury mansions and purchasing her shabby council house instead - because of her pet cat Pebbles.

Boyle, 48, is due to get a 100,000-pound first royalty cheque after her debut album 'I Dreamed A Dream' became the most pre-ordered CD ever.

And Boyle will use the money to buy the rundown 80,000-pound four-bedroom semi in Blackburn, West Lothian West Lothian, council area (1993 est. pop. 146,730), 164 sq mi (425 sq km), and former county, S central Scotland. Under the Local Government Act of 1973, West Lothian was divided between the Lothian and Central regions. , where she has lived alone with Pebbles since her mother died two years ago.

"I don't want to be moving an inch away from my family, and Pebbles doesn't want to move," News of the World quoted her as saying.

"She's lived there all her life and cats hate upping sticks.

"I'm the wee wifey with the mop and the cat next door. It's what keeps me grounded - remembering I am just that wifey. And Pebbles would hate to live anywhere posh," she added.

Under Scottish housing law, the singer will get a 15,000-pound discount because her family has been the tenant for more than 30 years. (ANI)
