Re: cat flap query.................

Your best bet, if you go down the hole in the wall avenue, would be to use your youthful womanly charms to persuade a couple of chaps from a big building firm to 'do a foreigner' and do the work for you. That way they can 'borrow' the heavy duty drill they will need and get the job done in no time. Flutter your eyelashes, tell them you'd be eternally greatful and ask what they'd charge?
And I think just to be extra prudent, I'd ask your Dad to be in the house when they come to do it.

Re: cat flap query.................


I've made a decision on this!!!!!!!!!

As luck would have it (kind of!!) I had to have my front window taken out of the new house on Friday so that I could get my sofas into the house (they were too big for the door )

Anyway - the double glazing company that came to take the window out were chatting to me and I asked them if they make their own glass. He said yes, so I asked if they could make me a piece of toughened double-glazed glass with a hole for a cat flap in. He said yes!!!! He took the measurements there and then and called me today with the quote..................£192 all in!!!!

I know that sounds expensive, but i had resigned myself to the fact that I was going to have to pay for it and the other company that quoted me quoted £327 all in.............and I would have paid that

Fate has stepped in!!!!!!!!
