Demolition Delay

There is a week's delay in my demolition. Oh no!
Today was D-day, but no sign of the D. I called up to find out, and was told he can't start today.

He'll start in a week, maybe. He'll let me know!

It would have been nice to know before I took a half-day off work to pay the deposit on site. To satisfy our palettes while we wait, here is the layout I drew up for the demolition application.




Ah the demolition application. That brings back memories. The asbestos survey company are pretty good at taking your money. I was given assurances that I would be informed before any 'samples' were taken for very expensive analysis. I specified I did not want any samples taken. Guess what, I was NOT informed, and they took TWO samples without my permission! Don't get stung like me. Make sure you follow them around during the survey, even if it means taking time off work. Drum it into their thick heads. NO SAMPLES.
