Yes, twice in fact, once when I put it back on too low Couldn't get the other interlock off though - wouldn't budge

Thanks! Taking off the sliding door's interlock gave me enough room to get a screwdriver in there and hook out the toy (albeit using a hammer to drive the screwdriver INTO the toy)

Thanks, I'll take a look in the daylight and see if that's something I can do Is the strip going to be reattachable, or is it a one way process?

I've attached some pics, not sure what I need to show you This is the whole door This is the bottom at the side away from the latch (bottom left on main pic) This is the top at the side away from the latch (top left) This is the bottom by the latch (bottom right) This is the top...

I did a search of the planning applications myself, and came up blank. Which, given that we'd made one, suggests the search is a bit ropey! I'd rather not say on here where we are, in case the council somehow got wind, but I don't mind sending you a message with the details, if that's ok?

Thanks I do like option d) Buyer seems pretty risk averse, but on the other hand, we think they've just gone self employed, so once this mortgage offer expires, they won't be buying anything for a while - which may strengthen our hand a little When we had the tree work done, the...

We're currently in the process of selling our house (The day before exchange when this came up!) We bought the house in 2008, and built an extension straight away under what I thought was Permitted Development. At the time, I met with the duty officer from the council, discussed our plans...
