    Headline is a bit misleading. Was hoping for a photo of chaos.

    Thanks for posting this - I use the BBC site from the UK and wouldn't have seen it otherwise as it's on the .com site. Also interesting to see the comments about the reporter's Chi…

    UK Readers may find this page interesting giving info on our energy sources. I didn't realise we use less energy now than we did in 1998. http://visual.ons.gov.uk/uk-energy-how-muc…

    We used to have a milkman delivery but it seemed crazy to do this while going past much cheaper milk in the supermarket or even the corner shop.

    At least in London people are saying these apps are adding to road traffic and congestion, so the extra pollution (by other traffic being stuck also) might be harming health and ca…

    There is no upside, it's a self-inflicted wound that will cost all of us £millions in the decades to come. Those who voted for Brexit (including 2 in my family) didn't think it thr…

    Great but I dont think it's the walls and roof that take time usually. It's the planning consent, foundations, utilities and internals.

    Whatever the guy's decision I don't blame him - it's his heritage and I trust him to do what's best. Someone like that will have put a lot of thought into it.
