In my opinion this is not your neighbours' falt, but the builders. If the Sky engineer spoke with them, I'd be asking them for the money, not the neighbours who didn't put the scaffolding up.


I appreciate that this is very annoying for you, but to them it's probably pretty far down the list of things to worry about at this time.

Of course you can! If you can prove their scaffolding caused your Sky to fail then they will just pay up!


You need it in writing from the sky engineer that this was the cause. Once you have that I think they will be unlikely to argue.


If you PM me their names I will check out what kind of lawyers they are - other than in inconsiderate ones!

But it's not enforceable?

Based on the fact that they have already repeatedly ignored requests?

Good luck with that! Most incomers start using local forums before they move to an area precisely to find out more about It (and then promptly stop using it when they move in)!

      National Travel Survey and cycling policy in London

      By Rockets · Posted

      This is the chart that the DFT published last week that triggered the Cycling Weekly article. Clearly, nationally, something isn't working and I wonder if the approach taken needs a complete rethink and overhaul as if this is the result of a £2bn investment then clearly it is not delivering any ROI - but isn't a 2% or so increase what has been seen in the City of London (per Carlton Reid's "More bikes than cars in the city now" article) so maybe this is consistent in cities too and 2% increase is all that anywhere has seen?

      I meant that particular Sainsbury's, but perhaps I am being too hard on it. But then I remember Sainsbury's in the days before there were supermarkets .....

      Pudding rice used to be in the same aisle as tinned fruit if that helps?? My preference is the Sainsburys fruit and veg aisle over Morrison any day of the week and Lidl, although I adore Lidl for other things they sell and their speciality weeks.  However Sainsburys size of peppers varies (small to moderate) week to week but the price remains constant, fresh mushrooms are hit and miss, some weeks they have them other weeks what's there I wouldn't touch with a barge pole. Gave up on the oranges as they also became much smaller but at the same price.  Nectar is a money saver compared o the price without the Nectar reduction. That's the same for all four of the big brand supermarkets. It may have flaws but saving money is what its about. Just some thoughts.

      I also had an awful experience there last month. The hairdresser started cutting my child’s hair before even knowing what kind of cut we wanted, and when I started to say what I would like, she said that she knows what she’s doing and just continued. They were also incredibly rude about the fact that I’d brought a buggy with me, and had no patience when my child started to get even a little distracted. Just very unfriendly.
