    [Help] OT neighbour advice

    What am I doing that breaks the law or puts me in the wrong- surely as it’s my own property I’m entitled to store anything I want within reason obviously. Not picking an argument just curious.

    [Help] OT neighbour advice

    Hoping for some useful advise on dealing with my next door neighbour. He has recently retired and has lots of time on his hands, he seems to use most of that giving me a hard time. On occasions I have some waste from work collected from the shared drive and he hates that but it’s kind of...

    Travel advise

    Hi all my wife and I are trying to plan a big holiday for my 30th in July. We have 3 kids 8,4 and 2, we want this to be a one off big trip. Our idea is along the lines of hiring a big RV for 2/3 weeks and going to a few different places. She would like to go to Australia whilst I'm more up for...

    Parking fine help

    The problem we have is we did appeal to the council as soon as she got the ticket, explained the mistake and showed proof we had paid- all be it the wrong vehicle! The reply she got was at best patronizing. Although they agreed they could see a mistake had been made they still rejected the...

    Touring caravans

    Is there a site I can use to help work out weights/ tow limits ect? I've fairly sure our car isn't up to it but looking to upgrade soon so will take that in account. Does anyone have any experience of buying S/H ? We visited a dealer last weekend but prices seemed high compared to what's...

    Touring caravans

    Is it all as easy as it looks? As in hooking it up and off you go. We have young kids so thought after the initial out lay it should be a cheap way to get away and see new places. The cost of our 1 foreign holiday this year would be enough alone to buy a tourer!

    Touring caravans

    I'm thinking of buying a touring caravan and was looking for some ideas on what i need to take into account. Was thinking of trying to pick a second hand one for about 3k. I have a young family and it seems like a cheaper way of getting away more often. Any advice would be great. I know the...

    Having building work done

    Thanks for all the advice. I am a heating engineer so that side would be ok, I have friends in the trades required but my main concern is trying to calculate all costs and if having friends do the work for you is always the best idea. I personally would like to try myself but my wife is already...

    Having building work done

    I'm in the process of submitting plans for an extension to my house, a very simple two story box. It would be the first time i have had any major work done. I'm thinking about running the job myself and contracting the work out to the various trades required rather than getting a builder to...

    Job decision help

    Thank you everyone for your advice, as I said I've never been in this position before and never realised it can be so stressful! I've really been struggling over it, which I though was unlike me. I've decided to stay on where Iam as I think the new job may not be as good as first seemed, as I...

    Job decision help

    I'm edging with I'm generally a man of my word and I've excepted the new job so that choice is made, and I'd feel a bit stupid after making it fairly public about my choice to leave then going back on it. I think it's partly just fear of the unknown. I think in my head I know I'm onto a good...

    Job decision help

    One min I think I should just try but then I just have these massive doubts, it's the only place I've ever worked so I now think I should have taken longer to decide. A lot of ex colleagues I'm still friends with have all said I will be better to leave but I'm just so unsure. If I did decide to...

    House extension

    One company I would advise you to avoid is DMB( design, manage, build)based in Brighton,they use mostly sub contractors, then tell contractors to just get it in with little care to the standard of work. They are also notorious for not paying sub contractors for little/ no reason. Have seen...
