I think it depends on where you live. We are in Wales and opened our second holiday let last Spring. Due to their backlog we have still not had a clear answer or a bill from the business rates!!

I have to sort the recycling most weeks as even with nice labels for the bins guests generally put plastic packaging into our recycling bag and our county seems to be one of the only ones that won't take it.

If you scroll down, a menu appears which has 'reviews' on...

All was going well until late into the evening there was a large bang and the concrete exploded :D :D Luckily all the kids had been sent to bed so there was only drunk adults left to be covere...
