Back in the day...Part 2...today.

Hi Mouldy, good luck with that one, Derek.

Scarey. Are you going to remove the trellis yourself so it doesn't get damaged?

Thanks Derek. Lol.
No Stera.
I'll just watch...watch them sweating. ;-)

Taking photos of them doing it Mouldy, then when it comes round to getting it put back, you've the proof that they took it down in the first place. Be 5 steps ahead. Maybe Mouldy should sit handy with a basin (clean or dirty, your choice) of water ready to throw over those students. Or am I being a bit too harsh ;)

Oh crumbs Mouldy, I hope your garden doesn't get destroyed, sods law isn't it that after all the years of no-one bothering and it was just grass, you get it all looking nice which benefits all who look down on the gardens and this happens., you'll have to keep us updated...

Agree, take lots of photos and document everything. Ask in advance for address to send the claim to ; ). Do they really need to take the wall down. I'd rather have a solid wall than a wooden one a student call fall through drunk

If this building is going to take the light from your garden
you have the right to object to planning permission being granted.

Scottish...good plan! How can a wall be more of an eyesore than a wooden fence? What a load of rubbish! I'm sorry they're wrecking your new garden Mouldy. :((

Guys, it's happening.
The fever of the approaching Games, The Homecoming and the Independence vote have seen to that.
They have enough money to choke Mammon and the arrogance of Lucifer.
And if there's consequent damage they'll chuck money at me to ensure the media won't take sides.
It's a win-win situation, as far as the politicians are concerned, as many of them probably suspect their days in control are numbered and the changing of the guard is months away.
Again, no public consultation and, sadly, too few interested. :-(

i hope things work out for you Mouldy, i live in a student area and they are not to bad, so hopefully you be ok too. all the best mate.

Oh dear...

Fingers crossed for your plants, Mouldy.

I hope there is not too much damage to your garden when they start working.

Oh no, Mouldy, thats awful and just when your garden was looking so nice ! I hope you don't lose any of your plants either ! I agree with Scottish...take pictures !

Mouldy, that is uphill battle you have, best of look with it. Then you have so called planers over paid twice . To busy playing golf with their developer friends to think about the mess the developers are making out of our lovely green farm land. Where I live in Dublin they have built thousands of apartments with 25% empty. Some had to be evacuated because they are a fire hazard. They are going to demolish , even though they are only 5 years old. They cost the young couples hundreds of thousands to buy. What happened the developers and planners who are employed by the council, you may well ask (NOTHING) Developers have their millions stashed away. Planers get retirement with a golden hand shake. What do we get, a mess and a bill to be paid by taxpayers money, Oh it makes me so mad.

Its disgusting Johnjoe, and we feel helpless to do anything about it. Its happened in other places too - some flats in Sheffield that won architectural awards were condemned only relatively few years after.

Mouldy its a shame you lose your good solid wall for something that will need replacing in a few years when it blows down or gets kicked in. The world's gone mad.

Hope things turn out the best for you, M8! It's a crying shame that just when your garden starts to look good someone comes a long & ruins things for you!

Ach, it's the same all over.
If this continues I'm going to jolly well refuse my next reincarnation! Lol.

Sorry to hear all this Mouldy your wonderful garden, like Scottish says take the pictures every phase of their work. Good luck mate.
