Default Think before you complain......

A town councillor in Wales, Mark Easton, had a beautiful view of the mountains, until a new neighbour purchased the land below his house and built a new home.



The new home was 18 inches higher than the planning dept had approved, so Mark Easton, mad about his lost view, went to the local authority to make sure they enforced the roof line height.

The new neighbour had to drop the roof height, at great expense.

Recently, Mark Easton called the planning dept, and informed them that his new neighbour had installed some vents on the side of his new property.

Mark didn't like the look of these vents and asked the planning dept to investigate.

When they went to Mark's home to see what the vents looked like, this is what they found...









The Local Authority said the vents can stay since there is no planning law referring to shutter design.

I would have complained too. Don't want my view of the lovely mountains destroyed and ruined all because some cunt didn't abide by the rules and guidelines.

Nah, in the UK nowadays we champion anti social behaviour and deliberately trying to fuck up other people.

Then those same people moan that "the Police can't do anything"

Not really. One just wanted a view he was rightfully and legally entitled too. He knew the score when he built the house. I bet a big part of buying such a house is the view.

fella I worked with had loads of hassle from a neighbour when he was extending his house, so when the roof was done he bought one of these on ebay and put it on the ridge that faced the moaning neighbours house.

well i think the bloke is a cock,at that distance 18 " is fook all, its not as if they are on top of each other.
Was easily just a bit of a mis calclation on the builders part .The cost of replacing the roof construction wont have been cheap.
Coulncilor just useing his powers imo
