  1. I burn a lot on my boiler, but don't retail it as logs.
  2. What a very nice offer shame about the response you got. Wish you were a neighbour of mine
  3. If its showing all clear I would then just ring planing on the morning we were starting the work or the afternoon before and say you wish to confirm the map/plan information is unto date, take the persons name and ask them to log your call
  4. Councils generally have maps showing their conservation areas on their website, some also have TPO maps on the site. You can ring the planing department or call in at the town hall, they may try to fob you off saying you must email, but I believe the information is classed as "within the public domain" so I think you are entitled to demand to see the map's/plans. Of cause you need to be reasonably diplomatic as they can make life difficult if you get on their wrong side.
  5. I think many of the rioters a few years back used the argument "everyone was doing it" when they got to court the Judges were none too impressed:001_rolleyes:
  6. Totally horrendous, so sad for everyone concerned, I'm sure mistakes were made but none of those involved deserve this misery, I'm sure they were all just trying to get things done. I would wager that those who have posted rather thoughtlessly don't have children, my eldest son works with me, he is 19, this thread makes my blood run cold. My heart goes out to all concerned, the family, the firm owner and the workers, for all of them life will never be as it was before this tragedy, very, very sad.
  7. Obviously, but as this is a UK site and we are discussing UK roads, thats pretty irrelevant
  8. I find that very difficult do believe, please give some evidence for this, sounds like nonsense to me.

    Willow

    Willow IS hardwood.
  10. Get a GSD, my yard is next to my home, our dog is a great deterrent, but you need one thats genuinely vicious, territorial and lives outside.
  11. Chances are neither do they, which is why calling in person is so effective. You just need to think through the fact that you have given both time and money to do the work and they are now trying to steal from you, you have every right to go see them and ask why they are choosing to steal from you!!!
  12. Evergreen foliage gives the hope of new life come spring, used to be Holly, Yew and Ivy foliage not whole trees.
  13. Exactly!! Being trapped between two lumps of steel is always bad, at least in front you may just get pushed down the road.
  14. I like a 99, I recon the javelin is better to watch. I can see signs of winter now.
  15. If it was coke I'd grateful that I only had a tiny amount of that foul poison to drink
  16. People instinctively go left when things go wrong when driving.
  17. You can't see anything coming when your feeding a chipper. I recall many years back, fountains had one lad killed and another very, very badly injured when they were feeding a rear chipper on a mog, on the hard-shoulder, one lad was crushed between the car and chipper, the other was thrown over the mog by the impact.
