  1. To be fair Kate came long after the tree felling issue. Terry however was well entrenched and one of the councillors the report holds partly accountable (without actually naming him). And he’s since been ‘promoted’!
  2. I wondered when somebody was going to post on this thread! A damning report indeed on the Labour council. Toby was very easy on Terry Fox who repeatedly tried to distance himself from any responsibility despite being the Cabinet Member for a period during the saga ‘responsible for setting the direction and tone’ .
  3. Hi I want to attempt to build a square raised bed out of bricks- 4 bricks high from the ground. I was planning on sinking another 'foundation' level of bricks into the ground just laid on some level slab laying mix. Is this adequate or do I need to create a 'proper' concrete foundation and build up from that? Thanks
  4. Unfortunately they dont. They dont affect the enjoyment of his home. They affect the enjoyment of his view. Not the same. Like somebody said, we have no right to a view.
  5. Which lead thieves will still target/damage before they realise it isnt lead
  6. Woodhead Road at Grenoside is another good vantage point to see the Humber Bridge & power stations etc on a clear day.
  7. I'm surprised The Mediterranean cant serve a decent lobster platter- I thought that they used to have quite a reputation for their fish dishes- but frozen lobster & crab from a tin is appalling especially when there is great fishmongers almost next door. That rules it out for me.
  8. The new(ish) style fries do have skin on. They generally come luke warm and soggy just like the old style chips they tried to improve upon but appear to have failed.
  9. These days developers actually pay huge sums in Section 106 contributions in exchange for planning permission. This money helps top up the council coffers to make up for the government cuts. Foe example on one development of 228 houses the contributions totalled over 2 million pounds split between sustainable travel (based on a rate per bedroom), Education (based on a certain number of primary and secondary school places at £X per place), compensation for loss of green space, and a sum to provide and maintain alternative off site green space. They would also have to provide a certain percentage of affordable homes, which are sold at reduced rates to housing associations. Averaging it out it came to around £10k per house. Ultimately the majority of these costs often fall on the landowner because the developer will reduce their offer for the land accordingly.
  10. What- even after the 'half price' sale and if you sign now I'll give you another 20% off and just let me call my supervisor and see if I can get you another 20% off? That'll be £6k
  11. Of course it wont 😂 Well- if they all arrived at once it might but over 2.5 years its maybe 1 an hour.
