My parents are having their whole house re-plastered ( :shock: rather them than me!!) and wanted to know if they needed to do anything to the walls before they are plastered. All the walls have been painted, no wallpaper for as long as I can remember. I would say mid 70's then in 80's it was...

We have just bought an advent monza t200 with windows 8. It is so slow that it is slower that computers I had 20 years ago. Half the time it won't connect to the Internet. I have tried connecting through the apps and the desktop. If it does connect it takes 5 mins to load a page! It loaded the...

Oh well, it hasn't come to anything. The form is now signed and they can start work in 2 weeks. It says we do not have to pay for fence but the surveyor doesn't think we have heard last of this yet!! It does say many times that its all at there cost so we are covered! the surveyor says through...

It's got even better but think I should tell you later as I think here maybe legal conotations now. It reads like a best seller, just wish we weren't part of the plot!

mattylad, this is how much they understand the process (or anything!!), when talking about them removing the fence as it says it will be removed in the line of junction and draft award, he said 'I don't want your fence' for goodness sake you don't keep it!! Its so infuriating!! I think we should...

I really feel The forum needs a like button. Sometimes i might like what someone say but not want to get into a big message, and thankyou isnt the right thing to say! Maybe its something worth considering adding!

Very true!

Yes supposewhat you are feeling does effect what quote is important at the time! I am having bad time with awful nieghbours and always doubt myself! Brilliant quotes on here! Think I will use a few myself!

Gardens are such a long term thing! Ours was very over grown, loads of trees but with no borders. !2 years on, there are alot less trees but the borders are still taking awhile to fill!

I know kingandy2nd. We were seeing our parents off and got caught. We are too polite and treat them like we treat everyone but I think its time to treat them the way they deserve to be treated! We just stood and took the ranting but now it is not going to happen again. Luis, we keep a log aof...
