Not really an update, one thing we have noticed is an influx of junk mail from builders offering their services. I'm assuming this can't be stopped because my details are public knowledge? Bloody annoying though! Kind regards.

Sorry, this made me chuckle. It would be a super harsh world we live in if we need planning permission to build a step, waiting 8 weeks, then have it rejected because it would effect the neighbors too much. LOL :D

Second update in one day, aren't you guys lucky. I got on the phone again to the council (yes, I am very impatient), managed to speak to the individual who has been assigned to the case. Very nice lady, she was very helpful and reassuring that despite common belief they do actually try to...
