I'm looking to get things done in stages they are listed in order of priority


List of works to do in 17 Marnock Road, SE4 1EU


1. fit new units and doors to the cabinets in the kitchen, re fit new work top and site the sink correctly. Hang the new back door - needs to be cut to fit, and made to open out not in - (Materials not bought yet). Remove defucnt pipes coming out of the toilet wall into the kitchen. Hang a blind there.


2. Re render and replaster in the outside toilet, maybe, take the old kitchen back door and fit to the toilet. Re render and re plaster in the middle front bedroom around the fire place. Bonding behind two sockets in the same room.


3. Top hallway window and toilet window - make fit, add wood to both so they are snugg. Architrave around the toilet window.


4 Bathroom: fit bath panel, shave bottom of the door so it can close after the lino is laid. put up shower hose holder. Remove toilet pipe radiator.


5. Floor sanding - finish off in the hallway.

    • Wow I had no idea they give you 5% in perfume for your accommodation. You're right, I need to travel more. 
    • Do none of you go abroad.  Tourist taxes are really common in continental Europe and do vary a lot city by city. They are collected by the hotels/rental apartments. They are usually a  tiny part of your holiday costs.  In Narbonne recently we paid €1.30 per person per night.  The next town we went to charge 80 cents per person per night. By comparison Cologne is 5% of your accomodation.
    • Hey Sue, I was wrong - I don't think it would just be for foreign tourists. So yeah I assume that, if someone lives in Lewisham and wants to say the night in southwark, they'd pay a levy.  The hotels wouldn't need to vet anyone's address or passports - the levy is automatically added on top of the bill by every hotel / BnB / hostel and passed on to Southwark. So basically, you're paying an extra two quid a night, or whatever, to stay in this borough.  It's a great way to drive footfall... to the other London boroughs.  https://www.ukpropertyaccountants.co.uk/uk-tourist-tax-exploring-the-rise-of-visitor-levies-and-foreign-property-charges/
    • Pretty much, Sue, yeah. It's the perennial, knotty problem of imposing a tax and balancing that with the cost of collecting it.  The famous one was the dog licence - I think it was 37 1/2 pence when it was abolished, but the revenue didn't' come close to covering the administration costs. As much I'd love to have a Stasi patrolling the South Bank, looking for mullet haircuts, unshaven armpits, overly expressive hand movements and red Kicker shoes, I'm afraid your modern Continental is almost indistinguishable from your modern Londoner. That's Schengen for you. So you couldn't justify it from an ROI point of view, really. This scheme seems a pretty good idea, overall. It's not perfect, but it's cheap to implement and takes some tax burden off Southwark residents.   'The Man' has got wise to this. It's got bad juju now. If you're looking to rinse medium to large amounts of small denomination notes, there are far better ways. Please drop me a direct message if you'd like to discuss this matter further.   Kind Regards  Dave
