Just to satisfy Zeb's expectations, I said in an earlier post that I understand this will give LL full high street status and push up business rates, thus forcing out some of the last remaining independents. Does anybody know the position on this?


Thanks.

If this were to happen shops would be left empty, if for no better reason than the footprint of most LL shops is well below the square meterage that most chains would be interested in. The reason we have so many estate agents is that offices of this nature can operate in small(er) premises (notwithstanding the great misue of retail opportunity space that is Foxton's).

I knew that I was tempting fate when I said that I was waiting for the negative posts to appear on this thread.


My main inclination is to greet the news that cinema has gained planning permission by quoting Margaret Thatcher (a person who incidentally I hated greatly) and shouting "Rejoice!"

Surely Taboo (1980) is in your collection Louisa?

disco didn't exist to the white middleclasses kids and/or journalists (in the UK anyway) until house came along.

...and, excluding the big disco hits, how much soul and funk was played on say Radio 1 or talked about in the NME? When I went to Univesrity in 1981 the soundtrack at the Student Union was very, very white...a lot of people didn't know any James Brown tracks for example

      Damp cellar floor is it a problem

      By Bumpkin · Posted

      We've got a Victorian coal hole cellar with a mud floor and after a couple of severe water leaks, I've taken more of an interest in the state of the dampness.  I've been running a dehumidifier for the past couple of weeks following a small water pipe leak and whilst most of the floor is now bone dry, there are damp patches along most of the wall adjoining the next house, a large damp patch in the middle of the floor that will not dry even with the dehumidifier right next to it and a patch of wet mud in a small hollow in the middle of the cellar.  An expert that lent us industrial drying equipment following a flood from a burst mains pipe said there will always be damp, but I'm a bit concerned in case there is a fundamental problem - any ideas from anyone with similar?

      Tree Killer – Seeking Advice on Dealing with Toxic Neighbours

      By FellbriggSam · Posted

      Yeah, it did work out in the end, but it was way more stressful and expensive than it needed to be. He lost money. He had higher offers early on, but those buyers pulled out because of all the delays. On top of that, he spent a fortune on legal fees trying to get the neighbour to sign off on the freehold transfer. It dragged on for ages. In the end, he was lucky the final buyer stuck with it, but the price was lower, and the whole thing left a bad taste. A lesson learned. Share of freehold can be a real nightmare if the other owners aren’t cooperative. You’ve got to be 100 per cent sure everyone’s reasonable, otherwise it’s just not worth the hassle.
