The microwave criteria is what will prevent it from coming in much less than the Hotpoint from Currys combo noted above. The cheaper built in ones are like the type you have rejected with the fake panel, and the type you want seem to start mid 200s. http://www.appliancecity.co.uk/cooking/microwaves/hotpoint-mn314ixh-60cm-built-in-microwave-grill-for-wall-unit/ http://www.appliancecity.co.uk/cooking/built-in-ovens/built-in-single-ovens/hotpoint-sa2540hix-multifunction-hydro-clean-single-oven/

It'll likely be circa £500 for the pair unless you will look at gumtree and the like.
-
Budget, colour etc? More details needed.
-
That scares me tbh! I need more time to fanny about hence asking if a slower approach is sans activator.
-
Does the mitre glue stick without the activator? Plus I googled and the advice is to use petroleum jelly on the nozzle to stop the lid from sticking. No idea if it works but I will try it next time. Plus stick it in the fridge afterwards!

There are quite often discount codes available for the co-op so have a Google first and try. Also they give cashback via Quidco (clear cookies for the site before going via Quidco or use a different browser). Look at Quidco as a bonus if it tracks rather than a ‘must receive’ to make the purchase worthwhile as sometimes despite all best efforts it doesn’t. Not all discount codes and Quidco work together but you may get lucky.

That’s even more impressive then!

Wow wow wow! The more photos you post of your plot and the views the better it looks. Even the driveway is stunning between all of those trees, and the view from what will be your velux windows is to die for! ?

What designer have you copied in Maison @Onoff‘s bathroom? ??️?

Adding legal expenses insurance to site cover.
newhome replied to epsilonGreedy's topic in Self Build Insurance
Does the basic cover include defending claims against you before liability is proven? They only need to pay out if the event is covered by their policy and liability is accepted or proven. A question to ask the insurance company no doubt. TBH £30 is so tiny I personally wouldn’t risk not having it. -
Sorry for your loss but definitely better to be busy, I can say from experience. You can now stand in all of your rooms downstairs and envisage living there, plus the view you will have from each window. Enjoy!

Calculating rebuild cost for insurance.

Adding legal expenses insurance to site cover.

What if a helping hand had an accident and served court papers on you? You say ‘fabricated’ a site accident but what if there was actually one, ‘fabricated’ or not? I’ve been in that position and was glad that I never had to do anything but liaise with a legal team and hand over papers from solicitors and the court when received. -
So ask the architectural consultant for the latest position on the planning permission. Or ask the LA (probably the best idea), or look on their portal for the latest. Maybe it’s already approved if you submitted an amendment? If you let us know your rough location someone might be able to recommend a builder. Not me as I’m in Scotland.

My friend is a huge fan and persuaded me to give it a try. I’m not great at mind resting in that I don’t do it. I’m either doing something, reading something or asleep, but don’t find that an issue if I’m honest. Well not currently anyway. There were definitely no younguns in the yoga class I went to lol. There seem to be different flavours of yoga but I have to admit I don’t know the difference. The one I went to was Vinyasa flow yoga

Last time I did any real cycling was in the Blue Mountains in Jamaica. It was very staged and organised though. As in cycling tour company organises a vehicle to drive ahead of cycling group slowing down any vehicles coming in the opposite direction until we pass. Driver communicates to team members in the cycling group and they make the tourists aware. One team member at the rear ensuring vehicles don’t overtake. All stops are organised and no one sets off again until everyone checks in. There weren’t many vehicles up there in truth and the scenery was stunning.

I read that as speedos! Yoga was £8. I wouldn’t cycle round here. Too many maniacs on the roads. Funerals are more than £8!

Nulok: a self-builder's first look
newhome replied to ToughButterCup's topic in Roofing, Tiling & Slating
So you didn’t have to drive down to collect them I guess? For the plebs amongst us, i.e. me, what makes this system easier for a self builder than traditional tiling and how do costs compare? -
No chance of me doing that! I’d watch the video whilst scoffing the Big Mac! ?

My nails tend to stay pretty decent if I use polish but have a tendency to break if I don’t. My manicurist always says treat them like jewels not tools but that’s difficult when you are trying to do stuff. I do however try to remember to use gloves more often than I did previously. Getting lids off things is a good example of things to avoid so now I just wreck screwdrivers instead . And everything is mind over matter, surely you know that?

I’m a simple sort. I can’t be doing with any off the wall stuff in a massage. Crystals and the like don’t do it for me. I tried yoga once fairly recently. Wasn’t really my thing I think but maybe it was just the set up of the class. Very small studio, very hot, I’d never done it before and nor had 2 other people in the class yet the instructor just launched into her routine without any explanation. The class had been advertised as suitable for beginners and she knew there were 3 newbies there. Plus it was only 4 weeks after my knee op so I couldn’t do half the stretches properly. I might give it another go but with someone different and possibly in a 1 to 1 session to begin with.
