  1. If you have a leak, and are not able to use the interactive map then you can register for text message updates or you can call the free number for updates the blue shaded area depends on which postcode you enter when you search
  2. and when you click on each pin, it has a title - it probably says leak or something - basically when you hover over it it tell you what it is. Just it in your post code and it shows that area
  3. if you click on each of the pins in the interactive map it tells you what's going on for each one
  4. presumably there is a legend on the data source
  5. Last week we had no water for over 24 hours and very little support from Thames Water when we called - had to fight for water to be delivered, even to priority homes. Strongly suggest you contact [email protected] as she was arranging a meeting with TW to discuss the abysmal service
  6. I think we can make a list of stupid things our councillors do “for the best of its constituents”.
  7. I understand that the Ryedale residents presented the council with a survey with everyone agreeing it was a good idea, so the council are trying to go ahead with it on that basis. Is our council absolutely moronic and devoid of any sense? I am yet to see any evidence to suggest they can run a bath.
  8. I do, but rarely. my dog is too big to be stolen but people think they can pet him, so we don’t, for that reason.
  9. I’ve found this from an earlier post but I’m posting a screenshot so you’ll have to type the links in
  10. Almost a year to the day that another dog was trapped in the ice. There were strong warnings to keep dogs on leads and the dangers present. People need to be responsible and sensible. Dogs will tend to chase things, and all the more reason to keep them safe. Very sad, and avoidable.
  11. I think it’s depends when you go in as well. I’ve been in a few times in the last month and I haven’t had to wait more than 10 minutes.
  12. I’ve used a drain company called Blockbusters and they were excellent
  13. that's missing the point
  14. Yes - I meant to say low tax liability not no tax liability for offshore investors rental income - It's limited to 20% regardless of income band (unlike UK residents) and of course there are CGT benefits as well As for new homes for asylum seekers - cost avoidance? Yes - it may be expensive providing hotel accom - but prioritising building new homes when so many are already needed but not being built? Would you not think that reducing the need would be more cost effective? As to why rent is so high, it is down to cost - which is now mortgage + tax liability (which is increased due to S24) + profit - not just supply / demand. But it does have a real impact - the demographic of London is changing to older, wealthier, owners (not all asset rich are cash rich). It's undeniable that there is a housing crisis. Are we doing enough of the right things to reduce it though?
  15. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/politics/london-hackney-kent-council-homes-asylum-seekers-home-office-b1265065.html £200m of new homes to be built for asylum seekers. We have a hosing crisis - high levels of homelessness - including children, soaring rents, rising house prices, shortage of homes - and our solution? Tax BTL landlords (leading to increased rent to cover tax liabilities), Encourage oversees investors (tax incentives as no tax liability) Encourage corporations to buy properties (increase rent to increase profit and tax planning to reduce liability) Prioritise new homes for asylum seekers. Raise money from taxing owners of expensive homes increase stamp duty WHERE IS THE LOGIC
  16. NYE is always like this. If you’re concerned about your pets, please consider seeing a vet as they can help. We give our dog valerian and play calming music, which helps especially after long walks and a big dinner. If it’s for yourself, it’s one night, so also suggest seeing your doctor for advice. It is loud, although more predictable ( kept to evening:to midnight) than Guy Fawkes celebrations which go on for days and are arguably selfish and inconsiderate. Either way, it’s a very difficult time for many.
  17. A damp specialist will sell you a damp solution. It could well be something different ( cracked drains, high ground level, guttering….). A surveyor will look at everything and won’t have their own trade solution to see you (i.e unbiased). Or you could contact your insurance company
  18. Get a surveyor, not a damp specialist. It could be external, condensation, penetrating damp, leaks….. it could also have dry rot implications
  19. We have a good one if you’re still looking, happy to sell for cheap.
  20. The one on Chesterfield was sold and they increased cost and some of their best staff left with the previous owner, hasn’t been the same since. Shame really
  21. If the fox wanted to attack you it would have. Sounds like it was chasing you off
  22. How do you know what the fox wanted to do if it didn’t do it.
  23. You can get free treatment for mange from National Fox Welfare Society. If anyone’s feeding a fox with mange, just add a couple of drops of meds
  24. The park and swings should absolutely be open and accessible for everyone.
