    Personally, I think this is likely to become another of those mis-selling scandals. If freehold homeowners are basically signing away the rights to full ownership of anything within their property boundary for a token repayment, it could create all manner of problems down the line.

    Greenhouse - Goodbye Old Friend, Hello New

    You might be able to drill through the aluminium if there is a piece wide enough anywhere? With the glass in it would be very sturdy. You could ask your installers.

    Succulent ID please.

    I am going with some sort of Cotyledon orbiculata but I already have one of these and the leaf shape is the same but grey leaved with a floury surface. More digging needed I think!!
