    photographing traffic warden

    I completely missed the point of the original question and answered it as though from my own point of view. If it's an incident then yes you can take the picture especially if it involves the warden.

    photographing traffic warden

    Hi guys. As the title suggests I'm going out on my own doing I.T. work. I seem to have a lot of work on to get me started and the future is promising. Now it's time to get it all setup right with the tax man but I don't know what to do about the VAT. I'm mostly only selling man power and...

    Skimming

    Empty out the room and cover the floors completely with newspaper. It's a lot like painting in the sense that preparation is paramount. It takes about a week before you can really see the end result so if you get a plasterer in then agree only to pay 1/2 now and the rest 1 week later when...

    train tickets in Italy

    Taking the train in Italy is great but it's no harm to book in advance because you could end up standing or being turfed out of your seat that was booked by someone else. Next recommendation is to go first class. It costs only about 30% more but it's sooo worth it. Enjoy Italy!!! I hope to...

    Black Mould appearing on North facing wall

    I have a damp problem in one very small bathroom that has no radiator in it and circulation is not the problem. It's a solid outside wall that is very cold and when the warm air from the house enters the room it condenses on the wall and over time this has built up to fungus. I think the only...

    Wooden Floors -Suppliers

    I'd suggest that you go for semi-solid because real wood floors are a real pain when it comes to laying them, varnishing them, maintaining them for scratches and all that. I got nice semi-solid "quick step" from Des Kelly's. I think I paid about 50 euro a pack for them. I have about 5 packs...
