Hi there, It sounds like you’re under a lot of pressure with the council’s requirements and the uncertainty around the repairs. One thing that could really help is getting an independent inspection done as soon as possible — preferably with a detailed written report. This way, if there’s any back-and-forth later, you have solid documentation showing you were proactive. You might find a Handyman Service useful to get quick repairs or assessments done, especially if you need to prioritize urgent fixes before deadlines. Wishing you good luck — hopefully it all gets sorted smoothly! -
Do you have any binoculars? My first ever sighting of swifts was when I was lying in the park, trying out some 10x25s. Nothing at all within plain sight, but when I was playing around with the focus -- presumably for clouds or planes -- suddenly there they were. I've still never heard any in real life though. The sample I heard on the BBC website sounded fairly high frequency and not very loud, so I suppose I might miss some; but then there have been precious few reports I've seen here of any being heard. The only one I remember is Jenny1's last year.

None of that makes any sense. Rumour and vibes-based governance... Meanwhile, thanks in part to the NIMBY tendencies of certain councillors, 23 London council areas saw 0 (zero) new housing units under construction in Q1 2024. Pitiful. About 724,000 (net) people moved to the UK in 2024, a sizeable chunk of them to London. The already high demand for housing is increasing, and the supply isn't changing at all. Rent prices (and therefore taxpayer funds paid to private landlords through Housing Benefit) are going up...and new housing units are objected to because they're "visible" and because a fear that rich foreign students will live there. -
Lots of hoverflies (that look like drone honeybees) about today. Also, tiny (< .5cm) bees/wasps
