    the house doesnt have a driveway but that is a very good idea. There is a service road round the back of the garden so I guess we could borrow my uncle's caravan if we get desperate, but as we are going to be at my folks/her folks over Christmas, and hoping this gets sorted out, we shouldn't need to move out. But thanks for the idea.

    Pond? Tesco bag? Not sure how this helps me unless it is an 'in' joke here. Anyway, the silver lining in this cloud is that instead of unpacking and getting henpecked by my fiancee, I get to watch TV at my folks (whilst my Dad is in his garage trying to rearrange my bits and pieces as I have blocked his beer fridge in)

    May be a coincidence but the old dog in the garden post was started by henpecked1?

    Disappointed this thread didn't take off like the last one!

    I thought it had been pulled? If that is what happened and it got put back a day or too later, it would be so far down that it would be lost.

    It is a shame that it was reported, quite needlessly and I am glad that it has been put back, even though the fun has gone.

    Same here, its quite a refreshing change to have the occasional "daft" post to lighten the otherwise dull monotony of lax landlords, troubled tenants and buyer blues.

    Missed the moment to carry it on now, unless, of course, OP wants to bring us all up to date with progress ;)
