Squatter disappears in June and returns in September. Students finish Uni in June...Students live/look like squatters....etc...keep up now!!
LOL Withabix, keep your hat on - it wasn't your post that didn't make sense to me, but the bit about the disabled parking space, still can't quite figure out what that has to do with the price of tea in outer Mongolia :rotfl:0 -
Squatter was taken as legitimate by the council, as he must have requested the painting of a dsiabled car bay outside his house - ie it is probably in a controlled parking area.British Ex-pat in British Columbia!0

I even get that bit
It's the link between him possibly being a student (or not) and the parking space that I don't get, but I'm probably being thick - I think I've spent too much time today researching council tax and definitions of granny annexes

thankfully this guy wasn't a student, although he did manage to con the local council into putting a disabled parking space by the house!
Charming: Most students are fine and you will probably be glad of their taxes in your old-age. Not a nice attitude if you want help 'n advice...
Re. disabled parking space: The limitations on who can park in that bay apply to anyone without a blue-badge, regardless of if the person for whom it was created leaving...
Cheers!

It was a light hearted comment that I as an ex student found very funnny. Make sure you add NSOH in your next personal add
