PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour.

  • Bungaroosh, great word. Hmm, yeah, you learn something new everyday, thanks for that one. Yeah, I like it, just any old rubble will do, just slap it together and hey presto, cheap material, cripes. Great. Yeah, I’m all for recycling. But how come they include bits of wood in it as well. Well, to bulk it out, perhaps, but do the wood bits rot away and leave voids and water traps and make it like a honeycomb and weak and collapsing? Oh dear.

    Fortunately (unless you live there) this type of building material is only found in the Brighton area.
    If you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales
  • Sort of a Brighton equivalent of mundic !!!!
