hello
Well the long awaited Wong-wing is finally at the last stage of external construction, a 5m by 3.5m double brick extension to the main house, same roof tiles, same colour and same ceiling height - nice 1950s 2.9m high ceilings approved by council.
Neighbours, to whom we showed plans months ago out of courtesy and not through obligation, come round to complain about portionf window-less single=storey wall well away from boundary fence and stand in my garden and say... "it's ugly. I can see it from my kitchen window and it's ugly"
so I start to cry and run in the house
if a project is approved by council, is that not the end of it? What would you do?
NB we have gone way out of our way to be as unobtrusive and considerate as humanly possible. Over here you can bulid two storeys as close as 90cm to boundary wall.
