I just remember it from being briefly 'analysed' on many of those 'best of whatever' clip shows that Arthur Smith et al used to be on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My missus runs a Gardening business with courses as part of it. With Covid she needs to boost the online-part and has started a Youtube channel. To give her a little subscriber-boost I would very much appreciate it if you fine folks can add her to your subscriptions. (No need to watch the content as it is in Swedish) The primary goal is a custom channel URL which requires 100 subs. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCynQf9IQqOFzfU1zQ5XcGAg Thank you /tegis You did your part VT!! Custom url set.https://www.youtube.com/c/tradgardsidyll/ A few of the vids has thousands of views, well worth continuing doing this for her. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I have left is to wonder whether you see yourself more like the head of an Orange Order lodge, a branch of the freemasons, the Shaolin temple, or perhaps a whizz at chess?

Mark Albrighton Posted September 8, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted September 8, 2021 When, or if I “complete” VillaTalk and achieve “Grand Master” status I fully expect the feeling to be similar to the one Michael Palin’s character finds himself having after he’s been seduced at the prospect of something great… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Does anyone in here have any experience with partially converting their garage to living space? The plan is to knock through from the kitchen into the integrated garage, partitioning about a third of it off as an office. Within the partition wall there will be a door to the “main” garage. In terms of building control what do I need to ensure? As I understand it needs to be insulated and doors need to be fireproof. The boiler is in the office area (plan is to box it into a nice unit). Is that an issue? Is there some requirement for a window? As we’ll have 2 doors would this satisfy a fire escape route? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the other issues, but my dad made the mistake of boxing in his boiler/pipework - British Gas came and condemned the system and he had to move his boiler in the end, funnier still because it only became an issue when the new regs came out. Just make sure whatever you do, consult the right people - can cause pain down the line otherwise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 (edited) There's nothing wrong with boxing in a boiler as long as you do it right, it just needs to be fully accessible to service and have 2 inches of clearance all around for ventilation, I did mine and have had it serviced a couple of times since without any comments on it.
