  1. I'll say it. If you are doing that much to a bungalow, it might be better off doing at a demolish / replace.`
  2. The biggest limitation on Ecology may well be the size. They do about £40m of mortgages a year, which is perhaps 80-150 mortgages. You'll like it, but there are not a lot.
  3. "Pleaching", by the sound of it.
  4. I don't see why these need a judicial review to be overturned. The one quoted - retrospective for the animal sanctuary - can be Appealed. Or a (slightly different?) further App could, be made, or an Appeal with both submitting new evidence.. If, as alleged by the Council, these are legally binding, then they do not I think have the power to remove the from the website. It is a retrospective, and does include somewhat controversial elements. The problem with this one is what they want to do - or rather have done already. I know the problem about Planning Permissions being difficult - my own Gym change of use had a 3 year limit imposed on the last morning without me knowing about it. The embarrassment of the Council may be to their advantage. Obvs some rather heavy staff education needs to be implemented. Ferdinand
  5. Try ebay.
  6. Sounds like a plum operation...
  7. It may not be a dropped kerb for your drive. It could, for example, be to allow lorries to swing wide for a corner by putting a wheel up the kerb. On the drive, you are probably best to check the regs with your local highways section of the LA as to max gradients etc, or website, or to ask an approved contractor (which you will need to do the pavement crossing anyway). There should be a list of such on the relevant Council website. The Council will be Shropshire, I would think. If space is short, consider doing the drive like this or similar:
  8. No photo ?
  9. It looks very similar to a bit of kit I use as part of my Home HBA1C A1cNow testing. The thing on the right. I'm not saying it is one of these - size is wrong - but is it part of a kit for testing something, where you put the sample in one of the round holes? An alterative might be a safety thing you remove to make sure that something is safely disabled, or a key to hold something in place during delivery.
  10. An 18" overhang is probably unlikely to be anything like enough. Use appropriate software / website to model where the shade ends.
  11. Time for a few changes to the design by the sound of it. You can get hold of, and play with, a trial copy of the SAP software. (Refrains from posting suitable song video, as you sound quite raw, still.)
  12. Sorry to hear that, but perhaps there is Plan B to be written. I'd perhaps say try not via Buildstore, as you seem to be in a position to look around, with your bungalow ready to gobble and PP in place. Why would Newcastle be your only lender? Do you have 3 heads? Or is there a good reason? Ecology BS?
  13. This is really your call as the customer, if you are happy with the basis of your view.
  14. I'd have thought all that tea and biscuits would generate considerable lavatorial activity...
  15. On the deeds it is listed under "Property Register", not "Charges Register" - so I don't think it will be on there. But thanks.
  16. I've been working though a Land Registry deed for a property I own today. And I came across this on the deeds, in the "Property Register" section. "(day.month.2017) An agreement dated dd.mm.2017 between (1) abc and (2) xyz Ltd relates to the south western boundary of the land in this title. Note: copy filed". How do I get hold of a copy of the "copy filed" agreement? Can I do it or does it need my solicitor? Ideally I need it within the next 48 hours. Thanks Ferdinand
  17. What about normal gas? Unfortunately I don't need an oil pipeline, either. Can he build over drains or sewerage?
  18. I wonder if that plays into recent licensing decisions in the UK? FF demand will never fall to zero, but can be mitigated. Consider the recent loopy controversy wrt the small coalmine in Cumbria, whilst Germany has 80 coalmines and will take into the 2040s for them to be phased out - plus a gas pipeline to Russia which can deliver nearly as much gas aiui as the UK's entire annual consumption.
  19. A little idiosyncratic. I have a wayleave to install services across the 2.5m of next door's plot adjacent to my fence. What services (or provision for services) can I install 2.4m away from my fence to prevent a future extension coming too close? It's more complicated than that, but that is the basic question. Thanks Ferdinand
  20. Thanks. Interesting.
  21. I'm quite interested in this. Would it need a boundary drain if the driveway were permeable?
  22. More seriously, trusses are designed to tight tolerances, so not too much. Your in situ beams may be labelled on the beam. Also, are they supported by an intermediate wall part way along, for example? But I don't see anyone taking a tonne of barbells up a loft ladder.
  23. What is the weight of the things you currently have stored in your loft? And the area? @vcps2021 this amount should be OK ? .
