Perfect. Can connect these to it.

Have a large breakfast or a decent lunch before food shopping. My freezer is a my local corner shop, a 24/7 Tesco Extra. Been known to buy a frozen pizza and a new router at 6AM, fantastic.

Simple, plug in some monitoring equipment. Works for me.

Maybe be worth a couple of very small fans on timers, see if things improve. If they do then you know it is a local problem and not a general one.

Pointy can go too far though.

And one of my all time favourites

Just the ears? Brundel's Jordan wasn't

Danske Bank will do a 95% LTV at 5.4% (initial 5.19%). I am starting to get the feeling that property prices are set on what they can be rented for i.e. they sell at a price that, if rented, the mortgage is covered. So if building to rent, just throw up a cheapest build you can get away with, but maybe allow for easy future upgrades i.e. easy to fit external wall insulation, MVHR, PV, under floor heating.

Anything with your best mates, the Great Crested Newts, in it would do surely.

Sound like those two examples are shitehouse companies and should not be dealt with. There really is no need for bad customer service these days.

I should really have said rough sleeping, rather than homeless. Many people are homeless i.e. B&B, hotels, etc, not many are actually rough sleeping. My solution would be to have a mortgage tax that is independent of the interest rate. It would be set so that mortgaged property is 3 times median wage. That could be set locally fairly easily as a house does not move. As long as people know what the tax is based on, and why it is there (to keep house prices affordable), then I cannot see a problem with it. Might also raise some useful revenue if it was administered via LAs.

Oh yeah. It is a difficult problem, but the current policy of moving them on or criminalising them is not the solution.

Lot of wiring if each tiles has a cable on it. So a big chance that something will go wrong initially. They say they last 30 years, so that will be 15 times longer than the company has been about I knew he had PV, it really is very neat his system and cheaper than a tiled roof too. And where is he.

About 5000 people nationally, 100 in Cornwall, the third worse place in the UK. So realistically not a large problem, one that needs sorting and would be cheap to do so.

The paint will almost certainly be from a difference batch, and there will be some fading of the original, so best painted together.

Not quite as blunt as my version that involves 'but there is a 'u' in'.

As a lecturer I was taught to push boundaries and break pre-conceived idea and taboos. I am just reading a book about the Dutch. Nice paragraph explaining about a Gay Pride barge going past with men dressed in pink PVC chaps and spanking each other. But then getting stopped for crossing a road while the pedestrian light was still red. Funny bunch the Dutch. We liked living there.

Can't, I have had too many posts removed already for very mild infringements on the basis that women are on this site too. Though you and Hecateh seem to like the laddish behaviour I worked for a national charity and during a review I was told that I was not much of a team player. I asked if that was a bad thing. Then I pointed out that I was the only one ever to get a project finished on time, and within budget even though they had let me down by not supplying me with the two workers they said they would get.

So tempted to say the real reply to that, so tempted.

My end of the SW has an affordability problem, even though house prices are pretty low (last time I looked PZ was similar to MK). One problem is employment, or the lack of permanent employment, lenders don't want to lend to 'Gig' workers and Gig workers cannot rely on a steady income. Cornwall has been Gigging for decades, just the way it is down here.

I am slowly making my way though that article. It is a bit of a rant against planning restrictions really.

It is a short term problem then. Bag and bin. As a general rule, collet it up in a box, then wrap it in Christmas paper, place on doorstep of disliked neighbours, set fire to it, knock on door and go and hide. Fun to watch people stamping on a burning box.

I suspect, but you can check, that the numbers are similar. I have suggested for a few years not that any uncast vote goes to the incumbent party. That will get the things sorted out.

But that is what local councils consist of at the moment. Why are the young not getting involved? Quick look at the ONS data shows that there were 660,137 birth in the year 2000, so that means we need to build just over half that number of houses, so 400,000. That is assuming that this is exclusively for 'millenniums' and that they are all currently wanting a home. Taking just London, there were 51,632 births in 2000, so an extra 25,000 homes. Now I have a tiny 2 bed house that sits on a plot of about 85m2 including share of access, parking garden and the house. This would be an OK starter home (if the layout was better, see my conversation with @caliwag about this). A football pitch is about 6,875m2 (they can vary in size to to the median permissible length and width) so 80 houses like mine could be built on that area. 310 football pitches worth. Sounds a lot, about 1.5 times the area of Hyde Park (1,420,000m2), or under a quarter of the size of Richmond Park. So I think, if there was the will, it would be easy to build enough houses for everyone born in the year 2000, even in London (and I am not saying you have to build them all in Richmond Park, just saying there is enough land). As an aside, for London (as a whole) there were 858,800 deaths in 2016, so they are greatly outnumbering indigenous births from 16 years earlier. So the snowflake generation can either wait and get a house when it becomes free, do something about it, or bleat like babies on social media. I think I know what they are doing.

Why are 'millenniums' not getting elected to local councils and changing things? How many 'millenniums' really decide to either pay 80% or earning on rent or commute? How man 'millenniums' are there anyway? Why are 'millenniums' not self building as a collective group? And finally, why are 'millenniums' not going around every estate agent in the land on a Saturday morning and pointing out that they only have £xxx to spend on a house? And second finally, why should anyone take notice of what an architect writes in a newspaper. Really, final, final point, if you build a smaller home, the market will set the price at what is currently the lowest value. So build larger homes rather than smaller and give people decent quality of life.
