RMweb Premium Physicsman Posted May 12, 2014 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted May 12, 2014 Your neighbour seems to have got closer Jeff are you sure there will be room for raised beds and other gardening things? Funny you say that, Mick, as I actually got the builder to move my house a metre to the left - as viewed in the photo. That meant a 9' gap on the right side - quite ok. Other than that house there isn't another within 50'. A house I bought in 1996 was built to the minimum separation spec. I could "chimney" up the gap between me and my neighbour - and often did so up to roof level!!!! As I'm typing this the site is "sticking" for several seconds at a time. Anyone else noticed this?

RMweb Premium Physicsman Posted May 12, 2014 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted May 12, 2014 Evening Jeff, (Say in Chinese accent, don't know why other than it sounded funnier when I said it to my self) Confused of Swad says will man have carpet laid before furniture arrive? If not how man move furniture and book boxes for carpet man to lay? Little guy, big load, heavy for little guy, not good move. need carpet down first. :no: :no: :no: :no: :no: Yes, a good point - as the builders won't let you have access until the completion day, at which point you need the furniture....and no carpets. SO: All the furniture will go into storage one week before the move. On completion day the fire and fireplace is installed. The next day, the carpets are fitted. The next 2 days, 3 rooms downstairs are floor-tiled and allowed to set. About 5 days after moving in, the furniture is delivered from storage to the house. 2 days after that, 100+ boxes of books are delivered to the (hopefully then ready) new study. Great fun.

peach james Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 On completion day the fire and fireplace is installed. I'd recon that loading a fire into your brand spanking new house on day 1 of ownership _might_ be suspicious. Besides, how will you know you hate it already, when you haven't lived there ! I`d love to have the chance to build a completely new house, but I can`t see it happening now. There was some chance before, but that is growing smaller now. Most of it was with going to Ontario for a couple of years, which isn`t going to happen, so now the chances of us moving are getting vanishingly small. There`s no point in us moving from where we are, to somewhere else that would be just as costly. So, I have what I have, and that`s fairly well it. I still have 480 sq ft to build a bunker with, but I am unlikely to do even that. I already received 415 sq ft of space that I didn`t have before, even if I am keeping 8x24 of that clear for the club layout to be set up in.

RMweb Premium Physicsman Posted May 12, 2014 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted May 12, 2014 Yes, James. Adding a dose of fire isn't a good idea!! I should have phrased it differently! As for your bunker space.... Well, I'm very grateful to acquire around 300 sq ft for mine. Welcome back from your salvage job (if I remember correctly) in the Pacific.

Should be fun James It must be hell on Earth being stuck in Hawaii for a few days, James! Your whole adventure sounds great fun - with a lot more going on than back here in sunny Blighty. But I think you need to retire so you can work full-time on Long Marton and your other projects! Safe journey. Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold ChrisN Posted May 13, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 13, 2014 I have only just come on and had no problems with the site but I did last weekend after the DDoS attack. I assumed it was left over from that and maybe they are trying to test the response again or attacking another site which uses the same routes but not the same provider. I had a long chat with my son last night and as I suspected DDoS attacks are unlikely to be loan spotty lads in basements, and it is also highly unlikely that they were after RMWeb as such and probably were not trying to hack it to obtain personal information. Jeff, You got them to move your house? No house within fifty feet? Where are you going to live, up north where there are no jobs and land is cheap? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff, You got them to move your house? No house within fifty feet? Where are you going to live, up north where there are no jobs and land is cheap? Morning Chris. I wasn't happy with the position of the house within its plot. Access to one side was restricted, which was unacceptable. So I insisted the builder shift the house about a metre across the plot. The builder realised that made more sense and complied - everyone happy! As for the server attacks. We live in a very sad world and, unfortunately, things will probably get worse. Tiny minorities who don't give a toss about anyone else seem more common these days. Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean you REALLY need to ask? Bodge: 90% drivel, 10% modelling only joking Me: 100% modelling - and no drivel - of course!! Erm, don't think so. To be honest, we've been treading water on here for over 60 pages. Hopefully that'll change in the (relatively) near future. Jeff 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
