    Hi Mike

    Working from home today and have Loose Women on for company (sad I know!)

    Nick Knowles is on from DIY SOS and says they are now doing whole houses now rather than just a room. I am sure you wrote to them earlier but would it be worth sending your sad tale to them again just in case?

    It could be. That's my absolute goal! Not sure my luck's up to it yet. They acknowledged receipt a couple of weeks ago, but it might be time to use our ultimate super-weapon...

    Mike,

    Where are you at with Planning Permissions? Have you got full planning permission? Outline planning permission? Has it lapsed? Any conditions on it?

    Do you want to give me an outline and I'll see what I can do to help / point you in the right direction. PM me if necessary.

    The local council will have a duty planning officer available if you want to go down and discuss with them.

    Oooh, stay right there! I am starting that process after the weekend (I've had it, to be honest, and need a day off! But if I get problems, I'll be in touch with you. I really appreciate your offer to help.

    Mike

    Now I'm confused! What with the OPs and the BRs & IPAs and the SDs.(I thought that was a nasty disease BTW!) :D

    I'm not always the fick one Mike, even I know it's not a death ray. :cool:


    I just don't see how a mass e-mail to electrolux will help your case!:p

    You're not the only one SB, I was trying to work out where you would sit on it and came to the conclussion that you sit on the cut out bit above the letters "CTROLUX". I then realised that this must be some very expensive *ex aid given the position of that sticky uppy bit in what I see as the seat.

    Maybe I should be an inventer. I wonder how much the designer of "the rabbit" is worth now?

    Evening all chaps and chapesses!

    Yay for religious people having holy holidays!

    Oooh I am a very naughty Catholic girl! *Note to self* Say some Hail Mary's to absolve myself from sin! Still, God loves me.

    Anyway, those pictures above are scaring me so I hope we can have a good old chat and banish them to the previous page!

    Mike, how are you today? Hope you're still good. I'm still very proud of you. Good luck with the Planning Permissions and Building Regs. If Bandit Bodgit Bridle did get the PP it will be valid for 5 years from the date it was granted but as works have commenced it will be valid for longer than that (possibly 5 years from date works ceased but check on that). I've only had limited dealings with Planning Permissions so best getting the info from the Planning Officer at your local Council.

    Must shoot off for a bit now, hope all are well.

    See you all soon,
