fair point, no’s all around

I'm still confused on building regulations, and whether I need to get building regs involved if I want to DIY insulate and plasterboard my attached garage? theres alot of talk about 'conversions' but I'm not sure I want to convert? there will still be a garage door, no new windows or doors and its purpose isnt changing from 'workshop/dumping ground' to any 'living' space.

looks perfect thanks!

i want to secure my standard up and over garage door from the inside, what should i fit?

the whole house was rewired, this is in a storage cupboard on the roof (my house has a flat roof and a roof terrace). going to guess that its maybe disconnected then.

place was built in the late 60s/early70s so maybe not?

never heard of this before, looks right. weird place for one, inside a storage cupboard..

wtf is this

totally convinced the slow release start over the next few months is planning in pretty large rates of non compliance from now on

i spent 29 hours on video calls this week, im not sure i remember how to socialise in person anymore

wish they’d go under

but means we'll all finally get big pay rises right?

... right?

thanks, some interesting articles for sure

like 35% - ain’t nothing negotiable at megacorp

@Howard guess that works on the assumption it will go back?getting paid is so complicated

@greentricky makes sense

Yeah can hold but ideally would get it into my S&S isa before the end of march and it seems to be getting worse (for me) week on week atm.

Does anyone understand £ -> $ conversion rates? I get paid a significant portion of my salary via USD stocks, and noticed that the current rate is <0.71 vs my last two conversions were 0.77 and 0.758.

Why? Is this the new normal? (market speculation I guess but still..)

thanks, id rather thinner and will have excess so might use some extra 18mm lengthways to brace along the back of the width?

18mm or 30mm birch plywood thickness for a desk, 160cmx90cm

no chance, many people first questions on monday seemed to be’ but when will mask restrictions end?’

After 12 long months what another 3 eh.

Might take a tent

but thats outside only right?

this timeline seems so weird still, so basically I cant see my parents (otherside of the country) until May?

does any one know any good books/guides/articles on the practicalities of DIY converting an internal garage?

no new windows or doors, need to block up the garage door from the inside, insulate foor ceiling and walls, and make sure i dont fuck up the gas/elec meter.

I want to read up on things like the building regs process and want it to be legit.

considering investing in some tools for other projects but its mostly only worthwhile doing so if i am sure i can actually do the conversion myself.

will be getting specialists to do any of the electrics and plumbing bits.
