    The two capri pics the RS alloys look great, the Janspeed exhaust must have been fitted wrong as they were the dogs bollox back then and great if your tailpipe internal was creamy white colour not sooty, I canny believe vauxhall would give anyone other than John Cleland a recaro seat but i may be wrong and finally

    I have actual famous  artists  come round and perform acoustic sets in my garage/man cave of 5000sqm.

    Occasionally I’ll turn on the old valve amp so  I can listen to R4

    Asking people to pay for their own alcohol is plain tight ! It’s your celebration you invited them, therefore the expense is on you.

    We we got married in Highgate – then went to a local restaurant again in Highgate with about 100 guests.

    Didn’t have a present list, we actually asked for people not to give anything, as it was our celebration and we wanted to share it. (Some still gave money, which paid for a few essentials in the house the rest put into our children’s bank account)

    Total for the day about £8000 back in 2008

    We had a great day, and didn’t feel bad about putting anyone out of pocket – it’s also the guests that have to cough up as well – specially if they’re from out of town.

    Having been and being where you are with my son, it’s apparent that all Camhs are different from one borough to the next ( we’re in London) and depends on budgets etc.

    We have so far received a good service – yes you have to really push for stuff – don’t be afraid to ask for anything as well as 2nd opinions.

    You up should absolutely be going through  camhs – as well as the school Senco being involved.

    At the the end of the day you want your child to be happy, any help/ strategies are what you need as well as your family.

    2 years for camhs – insist everything is now fast tracked – way to long to wait, badger the school…

    make sure you and your  family / wife other siblings are in the loop it’s a stressful time, look after each other.

    Knowlegde is key !!

    geezer, if you want, drop me an email next year before you go and I can give you the lowdown on La Parenthèse – it’s a lovely site. We’re almost definitely going back. But if you need some tips etc on the site and local area, I’ll happily advise.

    great stuff – thanks

    Did you camp or glamp ? I feel a bit of a fraud glamping, taking tent etc just takes up masses of room, will have 4 or 5 bikes as well !!!

    wobbli, we stayed here: <span class=”skimlinks-unlinked”>http://la-parenthese-camping-les-ormes.com</span&gt; in July for a couple of weeks. Just over the border from Dordogneshire in Lot et Garonne. It’s independently run by two families rather than a Eurocamp type affair. Choice of self-pitch, cabins or Safari type tents (with proper beds) on wooden decks with varying levels of comfort and pricing. Was a very good site. Cool Camping has a pretty good report on it.

    Good call – booked a week for August 2019 ! now all I have to do is find a week some where 3 hours away from cherbourg for the following week

    week one some where near La Rochelle  eurocamp style place need to book

    week two <b>http://la-parenthese-camping-les-ormes.com  – </b>glamping for the sake of £120.00 don’t have to set/take  a tent and all the other paraphernalia </span>

    week three –  somewhere 3 hours drive from cherbourg so dont have a long drive to the port ! either apartment or another eurocamp place </span>

    Its great organising a year in advance ! Just back from 16 days in S France and in 2 weeks going nera to Soissons for a few days.

    I like france- just not the french….

    Ive now spoken to the builder

    our loft is about 32 cubic metres  sq, its added about 1.5cubic meters to the build.

    reason he has said is because the the roof has an internal extra slope over the bay at the rear – the steel would have been exposed, nothing has been built on the party wall just up to it.

    our roof is lower

    I asked about contacting the council he said no need its the same size internally and its permitted development.

    Thanks for replying

    its still being built within our boundary, the party wall agreements already states flashings tiles etc need to be made water tight etc if touched.

    The 50mm gap is the distance from edge of dormer to roof (stepped) no flashings have been fixed yet as dormer is still a wood construction.

    So my local council don’t need to be notified as it’s permitted and still on our property ? With no real change apart from it’s about 25-30cm closer to my neighbour but still on our property
