    ^^ yup, if the annex has its own water supply/bathroom/ kitchen it will have its own council tax bill.

    Nope, not (fully) true.

    We’ve got planning to convert one of our outbuildings into a Granny Annex and one of the conditions is that it is NOT a separate property (and can’t be separately sold). Therefore no separate council tax nor service costs.

    Suits us as we were just going to attach it to our services; it does mean that we’ll just go up a band or so (not sure how though).

    Not what we were told by our planning/council dept. as the annex has its own kitchen/bathroom/water supply it is classed as seperate living space to our property, ( a living area that could be rented out as a seperate part of the property),so we recieved a seperate council tax charge.
    This was challenged and we lost.
    Unless different councils take different views, so advice before hand may be prudent.

    Would a magazine ever be bold enough to test Lidl/Aldi bike stuff? Or a review of what is available used for (x) amount?

    While we’re talking about Ronin, is Natasha McElhone’s Irish accent the worst accent ever committed to celluloid? I’m struggling to think of a worse one. Richard Gere in The Jackal maybe…

    No, the worst irish accent was Colin Farrels in Alexander. :-)

    Nemesis, if people draw my attention to illegal behaviour of any sort that is evidenced I will run a story on it.

    As I have explained, I have discussed it with Natural England and they have told me that they have inspectors with powers of arrest and the fine can be up to £20,000. As I said before, if this is not true I am surprised.

    No they do not. They are not Police Officers and have the same powers of arrest as any other person. See above.

    yourself stopped by a Nature England Inspector, arrested and fined heavily

    Erm, nope they can’t. They have no power of arrest. Trespass? Nope, civil Matter, Aggravated trespass…does not apply. Criminal damage? Nope, damage has to be more than £5k for it to be indictable. Sorry but that is a hollow threat.

    Just Googled the company and got this set of contact details – 01978 355280, based out of Rhostyllen Wrexham, LL14 4EG but the website gives a set of contact details in Co. Antrim, so, the question is why 2 sets of contact details?

    Exiting the trail early one morning a few weeks ago, the old farm opposite was an elderly lady, naked from the waist up sweeping the front of the farm. 8O

    As a member of the emergency services i have seen many, many strange sights at stupid o’clock in the morning. The most memorable were the two young ladies in the car who explained they had stopped for a chat. I then had to ask at what poiint all their clothes fell off :-)

    Been promoted and increase in pay. Mrs Monkeysfeet has gone over to a competitor in her line of work, again more pay. Plus she was escorted off the premises of her old job as she is going to a competitor, so she works her notice on gardening leave. The only problem is she is now finding jobs for me to do around the house :?

    Apparently, the only countries bidding for the 2022 winter olympics are Kazakstan and China. So that’ll be a human rights funfest, along with Qatar.

    Borat should take the lead if Kazakstan get the winter olympics

    Rutland did the same to me with some magura brakes they had on offer. Stock on line was good, ordered and paid for next day delivery. 5 days no brakes. Rang up and asked where the brakes were, they said that they had zero stock left. So got upgraded to next model FOC, great. Arrived next day too, so full marks to them for sorting out the issue.
    Ok, so shouldn’t have happened to start with but, meh….. :-)
