This is how surveyors work out the prices, but if there are any end-user buyers around they will bid more as they tend to underestimate the cost of the works. Can you let us know what happens, please?
Will do.

Suppose so.....more money!
I need to think in terms of future, and possibly borrowing in the future for business expansion and also investment and building for what I already have. If I borrowed for building now I could be trading more than three fold what I am now, and permanantly employing (local job creation.)

I remember when we used to go to my paternal grandmother's house in Rye Harbour, she lived down a small lane (lots of pot holes!) and there were no street lamps at all in pretty much the whole village, so mum always packed several torches. It became a way of life down there, go to the pub - take the torch, go to my aunt and uncle's - take a torch. If you didn't take a torch, you generally found yourself with soaking wet feet from one of the pot holes in the lane.....
Mind you, mum also had to take plenty of changes of clothes...me and my brother used to love playing in the mud in the harbour, within 30 minutes of arriving there, we would turn up back at my nan's house covered head to foot in the stuff.
Oh and I also remember that is used to take 5 hours to drive there...roads have improved a hell of a lot, it can be done in just less than 2 and a half hours now! Dartford Tunnel on a Friday night was not a good place to be.....We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

Malfunctioning keys in this house are usually caused by crumbs getting into the keyboard and under the keys. Have you been eating while typing?Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area.

Tyre performance in the wet deteriorates rapidly below about 3mm tread - change yours when they get dangerous, not just when they are nearly illegal (1.6mm).
Oh, and wear your seatbelt. My kids are only alive because they were wearing theirs when somebody else was driving in wet weather with worn tyres.0
