CLOSED - THANKS to all customers for the last few years

Maybe we should open a room in here for medical procedures, we have plenty of stuff available for the alleviation of pain ;-) I know where I would rather be if I was unwell...

Socs good to hear your Mums still fighting.

P, hope they sort you out this time ;-)

Hi, and a big thanks for the welcome, sorry I haven't been back until today.

I've been busy trying to make some money, turning into an apprentice alchemist lol

Evening all

Hope all are well, still having issues with the planners - another revision to be submitted by friday!!!

I think ill have a couple of guinesses before the fottie kicks off

Indi - send me the formula once youve cracked it

Fundamentalist,

will do, how about helping me, are you any good at tunnelling?

Indi

im in the middle of digging out the ground floor in the house im renovating - had a fair bit of practise with a pick axe and a spade so could be of help - so whats the master plan?

Best check his turn-ups first, Indi.

my turn-ups choccie???

Looks like sorrow drowning for me - ill have a pint of guinness but i better line up several pints of best bitter for DD - he'll be a very happy chappy by now (football for all those not interested)

good luck DD - i hope your lot go on and win it

Fundi, hope you get you plans through soon, someone advised me to put in multiple versions if you think there might be a problem and make them all slightly different, also 'reserved rights' are apparently very useful.

Indiana, welcome back, make yourself at home, watch out for Big Al and Chocolat, they keep arguing over the hammock.

Space

we are submitting 3 different versions, a real fallback, an expected and a hopeful!!! worst case is they will approve the fallback case and then we will resubmit for adjustments - hope it doesnt come to this but with planners you never know

Fundi, its a bit of a game but it seems you have to play it ...

too true spaceman

when i spoke to the senior planning officer he told me one of the main reasons he was refusing it was the front dormer was too large. he agreed to reallocate the case to one of the planners - i spoke to him and he said he would recommend it for approval without me changing the size of the dormers as long as i made a few other adjustments. when i said what happened once he said yes he admitted that it would go back to the senior planning officer for sign off and that he couldnt guarantee that hed be happy with that - he basically said it was up to me what size i applied for, no guarantees despie me asking what the smallest acceptable size would be

if two people in the same process who sit 2 yds away from each other cant agree what is acceptable how has joe public got a chance - the whole process is too determinate on the planners personal opinions

Walk on,,,,,,,,,,,,,,walk on,,,,,,,,,bring on the old lady in the next round,,,its like 85 all over again,,hope the result is in our favour this time.
Hard lucky fundy you did have a lot to do,not to worry.
As to the next round,,,,,lets just see how it goes,after all ,,rafa does know european football well,,goodnight.

Walk on ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, walk on

I just popped in for a cocoa before bed. All this talk about energetic activities is tiring me out. I'd better have an early night.

Sorry about the footie, Fundie :(

We don't argue, Spacie ;)
We just keep it warm for each other.

chocolat, i might bring me 'special' hammock into the coffee shop.....

Fundi, yes you just have to keep trying, you will get there in the end.
