The woman was unfriendly, said no I couldn't and if I wanted to put in a cat flap I also had to have permission for that. She said that it would take 8 to 12 weeks to get the permission and would have to go before the parish council as well as the district council so would most like take 12 to 15 weeks. I put the phone down. I rang an independent Sky dish installer and he said, no problem, I'll come and put it up for you, I do them all the time without planning permission, hidden either round the back or on the ground and not breaking rules. He said he had just done one for a vicar on an old rectory who wanted to watch Formula 1 on Sky! I thought if it is good enough for the vicar it's good enough for me!

We only grow earlies because I don't really like spraying and Ireland is terrible for Blight. It gets very cold at night and the grass growth on the lawns is very slow. Look forward to reading your blog. I must get some Brassica seeds sown this week.

But like Rachel says if its not commercial nobody bothers. Councils like to know the square metres for rates on commercial tunnels. <br /><br />When I was in Portugal I asked a solicitor how long does it take to get planning permission to restore an annexe. He said: "One morning."<br /><br />You go into the planning department with photographs and your plans and they give you a renovation certificate. <br /><br />I use to know of a village in Cheshire that didn't allow satellite dishes and only a certain kind of chimney pot. The French mayor sounds like it is in Portugal. Everybody knows everybody. Unlike here in Ireland. It can take six months to get planning permission. <br /><br />Thanks Sol.northsider https://www.blogger.com/profile/00716743611909673869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577767911269302322.post-65886812197381593262017-04-27T01:17:21.659-06:002017-04-27T01:17:21.659-06:00Yes the deck chair is a must Vera.

I am finding really interesting as my Friends who moved to France, now they have finished the house, they applied to put up 'professional green houses' so they can supply local restaurants with vegetables. They filled all the paperwork out. Submitted it, I think in triplicate. They sat in the local office and like lightning, bang it was done. I dont know if it normally that quick in France. The mayor lives 2 doors, and is one of the neighbours. <br /><br />We have to wait at least 3 months here, with site visits.Solhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10518631542782309728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577767911269302322.post-89356074976019478002017-04-26T14:18:44.577-06:002017-04-26T14:18:44.577-06:00Very professional but where's the beer cooler?...Very professional but where's the beer cooler?local alienhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14586011850451326646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1577767911269302322.post-80510573248837384082017-04-26T10:42:47.348-06:002017-04-26T10:42:47.348-06:00I think the deck chair in the potting area is the ...I think the deck chair in the potting area is the most important item to have there!
