GLASGOWOODS Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Give it no further thought or consideration for now. Put the letters away in case you need them in future. Do the dame with any others but otherwise ignore thm its their error and they have not got a leg to stand on as long as you have signed nothing. Good point Loob and they might be interested to kear about you thinking of taking the story to the Star and local radio. Not to mention the TV has a number of programmes that are looking for stories. . Would be a great story. I can just see his poor sad face and a picture of him pointing up to his free £10,000 roof. ---------- Post added 08-05-2015 at 20:10 ---------- How come the neighbour didn't notice the Scaffold had been erected at the wrong house ?

rudds1 Posted May 9, 2015 Author Share Posted May 9, 2015 How come the neighbour didn't notice the Scaffold had been erected at the wrong house ?

Cyclone Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Possibility that they may return and 'undo' the work!! Just a thought. That would be criminal damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muddycoffee Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Possibility that they may return and 'undo' the work!! Just a thought. That would be vandalism, you could call the police. I believe that in English law you are not obliged to pay for anything you did not order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Cid Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 That would be criminal damage. People criticize the council, perhaps do them a favour next time you can, pick up some litter or just help our your local community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteMorris Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Possibility that they may return and 'undo' the work!! Just a thought. But wouldn't that be a clear case of trespass? Apart from the original act of trespass... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppet2 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Possibility that they may return and 'undo' the work!! Just a thought. Just think about the waste of money it would cost the council by erecting the scaffolding plus the labour involved to undo the work done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
