Simply check the regs for sheds under permitted development. If you can put a good sized shed then I’d just put them in and clad them. As long as you stick to 20ft and don’t go high cube then it should be fine. Personally we don’t get condensation issues in ours and we deal with a lot of auctioneers who park them up and store antiques in them so I wonder if they already have a coating to reduce it. They do make a good secure unit though

I’ve got one that’s getting close as well, to my mind a little incontinence is to be expected with age. My old girl does wee in the house at times and we thought it might be an infection as well. She seems to have shaken it off and it’s now a rare event. She potters about and does a morning walk fine but slightly senile. I’m glad I have a thermal as you let her out in the garden in the evening she just disappears and would stay out. Eats like a horse but is getting thin but not suffering, when she is we will do the right thing. So basically you give them a chance and I wouldn’t do more than anti biotics for an ancient dog

We’ve gone 2 years without getting it and have caught it this week. So far it’s like a bad cold, the other half’s dad tested positive yesterday and at 93 he seems ok so far but even fully vaccinated it’s not ideal.

I’m the same way of thinking, Boris is a little marmite but I quite like him. For a PM you have to wonder how much more can get thrown at him and you can’t magic up an answer to pandemics and Russians

Isn’t that the truth! Mine came with her own house and we’ve always bought improved/extended and moved increasing our pot while her cottage has been rented out, we’ve had the lot but it’s always been through an agent. In our case the main reason being with an agent and this is sticking my head up in this one is that she is a council housing officer….. So sees it all. We currently have an ok one and haven’t rocked it with any increases for ages but we also haven’t changed tenants every 18 months which we were doing. what I would add on the original topic is try talking to the council, quite often the people concerned are being a nightmare on that side as well and there are funds they can clear arrears from to keep the people off their doorstep,

With the driver in question it wouldn’t surprise me! But apparently it was a reasonably common occurrence poor quality ad blue

We had a 2k bill on our lorry after a driver filled it from a container bought at a small petrol station, no idea if it’s down to outside storage but made us more careful where it was obtained!

Come on Mungler it’s not over…… wait for the next strain that kills well and we will be back to square one.

The one that classes them the same as a van. Mine costs me £60 a month or there abouts and that’s far cheaper than most cars….. as for being a Gardner with one if you have the space just buy an ifor Williams trailer with ramp and cage sides and you are good to go.

Same experience here,booster done today in and out no fuss!

I’ve been impressed with the toyo open country at. The tyre place we use at work recommended them and so far over 20k they look hardly worn. What’s even better is economy is very nearly the same and the price they are massively less than the bfg’s

At least you will know you won’t have worms. I believe India stopped the trial as it wasn’t shown to be beneficial but I’m sure you will have some dubious web source that will suggest otherwise

You were arguing well till you mentioned one word. I’ve a driver who is anti vax and he used the same one. I struggled to take him seriously after he wouldn’t get vaccinated but was willing to take effectively worm tablets bought off the internet to prevent a bad case of covid. The main thing I am interested in is does the jab reduce transmission as well as reducing the risk of a bad case of covid. A lot of evidence seems to suggest it does

I’m glad to see some sense has come up in this thread. It’s not unusual especially if both are bitches and size is the real issue. You have to stamp on this kind of behaviour and manage it. Feed separately and get right on top of the aggressor. It certainly isn’t a sign of aggression to children and family members

Not much has come out of it. We did a fairly large move of artwork for a jolly up there, it appears the next round of Willy waving will be the next world economic forum in davos, just been quoting for the same art collection to go out there for a week while they party and jet in and out and tell the rest of us how to clean up the planet……..

At 10-12 years be very very careful if you go down the Navara route. That age are well in the rusty chassis side and Nissan bought so many back after the chassis failed. They have stopped doing it now so if you have a problem then basically you have a scrap vehicle. Hilux’s are fine but expensive Stumpy that is our findings as well, never had it mentioned but then the pickup is fairly new and not a work vehicle in the tree surgeon sense…..

Have you had a pickup and a caravan? We have for the last 10 years or so, never been pulled up for being a commercial vehicle mine isn’t sign written but it’s never been mentioned. Never struggled due to weight in the back as you gain some from the nose weight and it’s never unloaded when towing the caravan as so much travels in the back. Traction on roundabouts is ridiculous you just don’t find it an issue, if you do you are really towing badly.

Simple thing is any pickup will handle the caravan. The best advice is buy the best condition one you can with the best history. At that age they can be very good or very bad but the plus points are less emissions reducing gubbins to go wrong

Ok so if you had a dog chased a hare and nearly ended up on a road and you got hold of it scruffed it and shouted a few things at it but you just had the last bit filmed and then your name put out there, your address and we’re suspended from work and started getting death threats due to trial by media would you think it was justified?

It’s odd on here how people believe footage from an anti organisation and don’t wonder what preceded it or was edited out. You have a junior school teacher and a female who is into her horses loosing the plot with one. Did it refuse to box, had it just bitten her what had happened to get this reaction??? I know having been bitten by a couple of these that it is one of the more painful things that can happen to you. It looks bad on film but what caused it should be the main question like most I’ve seen worse done by good dog trainers on shooting fields just most haven’t been filmed when it’s happened

If you want to heat the house get a stove, ours happily heats one end of the house and stays in overnight without really trying. Uses far less wood than an open fire and far more controllable

You are sounding more and more like Arthur Daley…….

I went with google nest for ours. It makes a massive difference control wise. I fitted it to our system and it was relatively straight forward. I say relatively as it’s daunting as hell when you see the mass of wires and lack of colour coding that seems usual in heating systems. I had a wall thermostat but opted to use the nest one on a stand so it can be moved about as the old location isn’t ideal. So far I haven’t taken the old one out of the circuit but just left it turned to max. Function wise I haven’t left it to it’s own devices yet but it knows when you leave the house etc so can revert to eco settings when you are out and things like that.

The series 6 though looks like a backwards step, less power and all the eco gubbins looks to be making them less reliable. My series 5 has been my best one yet
