Every 5 years?!??!?

Deano.....build a moat!!!
yeah, we used to have an "estate visit" once a year, so that we could explain any problems we had on a face to face basis, but since they amalgamated with Tor Homes(Torquay) that dosent happen any more.

most city people would think it wasTongue we are on the edge of a small market town (pop 1300) in north west Devon, on a housing estate with about 200 houses, some private houses, some buy to let and some housing association(which is us). if we had the money(at present we dont) we would move out into the middle of nowhere(still in Devon), detached, NO near neighbours with a bit of land, that is my dream but that all depends on my lottery numbers!Big Grin

Oh okay. I thought, when you said that you didn't really hear from your neighbours, that you meant they were so far away. My image of your home was what you want to have. That makes much more sense now mate.

Oddly enough, other than the Devon thing (I've got nothing against Devon, but I just LOVE Starbucks!!! I'm sorry, I know that word is swearing) we have the same general idea.

In a SHTF NO Starbucks. Just like the yanks over priced and over here.
