Washing machine...my new one is a cold water feed, but I have a hot and cold tubey thing from the old one plumbed in. This is a stupid question but what do I do with the hot hose? Is there something you buy to cap in off or something?

Usually, before the tubey thing there's a little valve on both the hot and cold feed pipes, if both exist, so either or both can be turned off.

If not, there might be an in-line check valve (the sort you turn on & off with a screwdriver) somewhere on the feed pipes & near the machine.

Was it a retrospective planning meeting then?

It was an appeal against enforcement. He could still have swung it IMO if he'd had the wit to re-submit.

Surely the first thing to do with an enforcement notice is to resubmit as then the council if they reject know you can go to appeal with the sec state?

Yes.

I guess he thought various c0ck ups by the council would be sufficient to get the enforcement declared void. Those advising him also thought so. However, they were wrong.

You and I can't c0ck-up, but councils can.

can you tell me, was my exam in random letters or random numbers? Its bugging the dickens out of me now.

And I want to concentrate on horizon later to help me decide whether I'm good or evil....because I do wonder over that a fair bit.

Sadly not. I have almost no recollection of programming at all now...and I can remember completing punch cards in binary ..cannot think why all noughts and ones, and then other stuff that was all Alpha and conditional statements. On the other hand this is so hazy I may be making it up or confusing it with something else.

Useless. Sorry.

well....don't I know it here!!!

incidentally, only sticky moment to day was over a ceiling....''oh no, you can't use this ceiling, we ...team lost...were all a bit ''yer what?'' then realised that the LISTED person was worried about a plaster board ceiling thinking it was original...(weird, because its actually in decent nick too, that one!)....tactfully we pointed out it wasn't lathe and the problem there no longer exists.

I'm suprised no-one has picked up on the 15 year old's mum, aged 30.

I hadn't realised - she looks a lot older than 30.

the other week someone asked dh if this was his parents house. That really worried me because it means I probably look like his mother. I do look old for my age. I used to look young for it though. My mother looks amazing for her age, a good ten years younger...

neverdespairgirl

I think I look about my age. My mother's nearly 3 years older than my Dad, but looks younger.
