As normal as they have been over the past few weeks, since they introduced the 'we can't be bothered running a proper service anymore timetable' or as Transdev call it 'the Summer timetable'

Good, glad you found it. We too have done up houses so I know about putting in RSJs also my dad was an architect and surveyor so I know how to read a plan. Not sure sure the person who drew up the plans was qualified in that field so that may just have been his way of referring to them as beams rather than RSJs.

apparently the fire brigade have said this was accidental

the initial wall collapse was a series of unfortunate events starting with sand blasting that didnt go as well as planned to a builder completely hoofing it all up.

i saw the owner the other day and he is genuinely cut up as this is not just another insurance job - the whole repair job could take much more than 6 months - dont know many people who can wait 6 months and not have any income as well the risk of losing some good quality staff they had.
