That's how they moved that well-known caravan, London Bridge, to America.

Can I dig up the pavement? I don't know - it depends how strong you are, and on your stamina. What equipment do you have - pneumatic drill, or just a crowbar and a spade? Or did you mean to ask "May I dig up the pavement?"

The big orange button is not normally there. If you pressed the Forums button it is not there - you have to select the particular forum you want and then it appears. But once you have had a look at a particular thread in that forum then it disappears again, and you have to start again. It's...

Don't all dry logs start off as wet logs, until dried?

It's surely a combination of the two that counts - ie the appliance and the fuel? If you burn old carpets and tyres in a fully-compliant stove then it will belch black smoke and be illegal. Or if you burn smokeless fuel or dried logs in an ancient range then it will burn cleanly and be compliant.

We also are on a wifi/dish connection to a small mast on the other side of the valley, about 2 miles away in direct line of sight. The local provider said a good guide is whether you can see any windturbines - they always have excellent internet for remote control - and good access for...

Is each block a house? Five are numbered, one is unnumbered - is that yours at the end? What do the colours signify? Where are the tree house and gazebo?

"The height of things is generally measured from the highest point of the natural ground around it." "the raised platform will be > 30cm above the natural ground level at that point;" There's bit of a contradiction between those statements, or at least an ambiguity. The first states that the...

Is that 25% of the entire roof, or just of the bit you are replacing - extension or wing, perhaps?

There was a "Grand designs" programme recently featuring restoration of a collapsing pele tower. Some of the structure had already collapsed, and part way through a massive internal wall gave way. It was an exiting feature, as the team ran as the wall collapsed. The permissions must have been...

I don't think putting your car on show in a glass case is a good idea. It would be better to build a rusty corrugated iron shack and pile a lot of old junk around it.

250mm is 10 inches! I'm not surprised it costs £200 - cheap at the price, and must weigh a ton. Will the floor take the weight?

You are using language in a most peculiar way. To clarify, what does the "that" refer to? Do you mean a) the building regs of 2004 state that ducting into another room is acceptable, and there has been no change since? or b) there has been no change since 2004 such as to make ducting into...

We had the electricity people here last year doing routine checks on trees growing near power lines. The very helpful man said they have the power to trim branches to a safe distance, without permission if no one was around. We walked along the length of the wires and agreed a list of all the...

Where would the rain have gone before the building existed? :)

Criterion - singular Criteria - plural

Common sense tells me that could be lethal!

The builder apparently thinks a borehole in some way "supports" a well - "a well has to be supported by several boreholes around it to support?" What do the boreholes do - relieve water pressure from a blocked-up well and gush water like when drilling for oil?

You mean unless it IS built of inflammable materials? You mean non-inflamable?
