Our 14 yr old son is looking for new things to do at weekends (or evenings, homework permitting) and is keen to make more local friends as his school is some distance from SE22. Has anyone got any suggestions for clubs, etc? He'd be interested in joining a drama club, or maybe some sort of sports like tennis or badminton but isn't too keen on football. He's still good friends with a couple of people from primary school but doesn't seem to have made any really close friends at secondary school even after 3 years. He's friendly with people at school and quite outgoing but seems to lack confidence in asking to meet up with them out of school. He wants to broaden his circle of friends but it's hard to know how to help him without making it into a big issue for him.... Have any other parents got sons in a similar situation? Help!!!

      Party wall dispute - what now?

      Are their plans up on the Southwark Planning Portal? https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/ This should show exactly what they are planning to do. Permitted development doesn't apply to flats. To build an extension to a flat you must apply for planning permission. https://www.planningportal.co.uk/permission/common-projects/flats-and-maisonettes/extending-ground-floor-flat Therefore the plans should be there.

      The very best advice.   People often use aggressive behaviour to hide their wrong doing.   A solicitors letter will give them a little reminder of what is right.

      It's usually if your property is adjoining or very close to the property where work is being done. As others have stated, chimney breast removal and structural walls removal definitely require your consent and your neighbour will be responsible for paying your party wall surveyors fees. They probably don't want to pay additional money but that's the law so the law is on your side. It's a safeguard at the end of the day and if you want to quote the law at your neighbour to make them take responsibility I would get a solicitors letter (few hundred pounds but money well spent as property worth a lot and a lot can go wrong with building work so best to cover yourself). https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/preventing-and-resolving-disputes-in-relation-to-party-walls/the-party-wall-etc-act-1996-explanatory-booklet you may find useful
