The one on the roundabout just past the pedestrian crossing? definitely a ‘how the fuck did they manage that’
20mph? LOL people must think it’s 40 so 50’s ok.

‘ They both sound horrific. It must be a real bummer to grow up speaking estuary English.’

Taken a few weeks ago, looked in good nick.

Fair comments, the managed decline of the private landlord is not something I would like to be in charge of!.

My initial post was a reaction to all landlords essentially being a pox on society.

Lots of landlord hate.
I had 3 landlords living in London and all were absolutely fine to deal with, zero issues from us and glowing references from them when moving.
I’m also currently a landlord though not by choice and not for much longer. Someone had a place to live for a year at below market rate at a time when they needed it.
All these ideas to make being a landlord more prohibitive just mean higher rents and less choice for those who want to rent.
The need for rental property isn’t going to disappear overnight and the slack isn’t going to be taken up by councils who are broke.

The big issue is they will likely want to template themselves so it’s 2 trips.
Definitely go local though, I had a quote for about 10m of plain corian windowsills from one of the big online places and the fancy quartz from Imperial was less than 2/3 the price. If we had picked from the offcuts outside it would have been even cheaper.
I would do some drawings and go and visit a few, possibly not the high st showrooms but the trading estate ones.

Imperial Marble and Granite Bellingham.
don’t let the ‘old man’ give you a price it’s the son you need to speak to.

According to Jay Rayner the chips are not to be missed either.

Was that Toklas? taking E there for her birthday.

I like the gym floor but not all the scuffs.
Would probably end up laying it then sand and refinish with new random line tape myself.

Do you have a deal booked in already? Rates have been a bit weird lately up and down but we have a budget today and the next MPC meeting on the 7th when a quarter point drop is odds on but the change in fiscal rules/bond markets might mean no cheaper mortgage products.

All ours are triple column, one vertical and anthracite so the wrong colour but the total BTU is the same as old panel rads but bigger bore manifold and insulation/new glazing.
No issues heating up and that’s at a low(ish) flow temperature on boiler.

Sorry not for a freebie, there’s always a queue at my local post office and I’m not planning on going there for anything else at the mo.

Well it’s been covered by most news channels this last week about how SK might react.
While they have a historical agreement with russia for port visits of warships they officially condemn the annexation of Crimea, Donbas etc and oppose the war.
They also have strong partnerships with Nato countries as well as allies in the region who are not aligned with russia and China.

South Korea are a big arms manufacturer and have only donated humanitarian aid so far, or indirect ammunition purchased through intermediaries, North Korea getting involved will potentially change this.

It’s metal, red and you hang stuff off it.
Free to collect in SE19 near Crystal Palace triangle before it gets put in the garage.

badly integrated cheap subs usually sound awful especially if they accentuate room nodes.
That thud thud thud of somebody’s ‘hi-fi’ choice influenced by MDMA and driving round the M25.
I want to hear bass being played just not like it’s in the back of a 3 series BMW...

This was freecycled to us and will need a clean.
No cone as we are keeping that to take when we travel
Have loads of servers already.

Can you not do ‘Lucky’ ;-)

Thanks, unfortunately it’s a bit too high :-/ and will break the line of the windowsill (you are familiar with the lounge window in the Austin Vernon flats)

What are the dimensions of the freestanding unit? Presume the glass comes out for transport?

“P.S: it is worth expending extra in good rechargeable batteries”
They recommend eneloop batteries but buy the ikea Ladda 2450Mah ones which are rebadged eneloop and cheaper

You could try Williamson Carson and Co who are media/TV/film/photography insurance specialists.

They have been my insurers for years. Their employers and public is not horrendously expensive, the big brokers run a mile once you mention photography.

Edit: just read CJR’s post recommending them so they must be good.

Would rep/LoL etc.
If I had the right blouson jacket I would get a pork pie hat but it’s now ‘out for delivery’ so fingers crossed it’s here by 6…

Someone on here has one, Andy the architect but it’s can’t remember his username
