Housing associations have funny rules. My in laws recently went into to a care home, only for two weeks respite care, however whilst there they were assessed, it was found that it would be best for them, if the care was permanent. This was agreed by the Family. So a letter was sent by my wife, to the housing association that owned the property that they lived in, explaining the that the property was no longer required and could be free to re-let by the 30th of March.
Back came a letter basically saying no you cannot do it like that, you have to get your parents to write to us, saying that they wish to give up the tenancy and have giving you permission to act on their behalf. And you need to send a letter to us explaining you are acting for your parents. (Thought that was what the first letter was about). Also four weeks notice must be given to end the tenancy. So now the property will be empty until 30th April. ( A Month, when someone could have been living in it).

Just a thought What if, your father ended his tenancy agreement and at the same time you apply for the new tenancy. Logically it would work but no guarantee.

What ever happens we are all behind you.

It is hard to actually identify birds eggs from a photo, re size and colour.

Creaking Door, But more to the point if they are wild bird eggs and you do not own them legally, you have just left your self wide open for prosecution.

It has been illegal to take birds’ eggs from the wild since 1954. Since September 1982, with the introduction of the 1981 Wildlife and Countryside Act, it has also been against the law simply to possess the egg of any British wild bird.

Whilst this is mainly intended to deal with active egg collectors, it means that anyone with any collection of British birds’ eggs may be breaking the law.

Some people have old egg collections in their possession, perhaps discovered in a loft or handed down by an elderly relative.

If you have a genuinely old collection there’s no need to be unduly worried. If you can show that the eggs were taken before the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (Protection of Birds Act 1954 in Scotland) came into force, you will not be convicted of possession. You do not have to prove this ‘beyond all reasonable doubt’ but merely to show that it is likely ‘on a balance of probabilities’.

In effect, provided you could satisfy a court that the eggs were taken before 1954, you have nothing to fear. In practice, it is unlikely that with genuinely old collections a case will ever get as far as a court. Experienced investigators and prosecutors should quickly recognise these old collections and are unlikely to think prosecution is appropriate in such cases.

Nevertheless, if you choose to keep the eggs of wild birds, you should be aware that it is possible you may be called upon to show they are lawfully held. If that happens, it is up to you to show that your possession is lawful and not up to the prosecution to show otherwise. The prosecution has only to prove the actual possession.

Yes, would agree that its the Jackdaw.

Classed as vermin, so I think you will not be prosecuted C.D.:)

Best get your ladder out, and put some wire netting in or over the chimney pot.
or “They will be back”.

Same here, managed to upload a photo, Did manage to add a bit of info but would not let me alter it.
Went and read some of the comments, and a lot of people find it too complex, to import the data.
A shame but guess a lot of history will be lost as it is too hard to put down.

Not a 999 call, but worse behaviour. what a Numpty.

But we can have a good guess at the time the pic was taken. Sometime after 22.35 pm as these clouds will only appear one hour after sunset. (7th July sunset at Scarborough was 21.35pm) and the sun has to be 6 -16 degrees below the horizon.

These clouds cannot occur at sunrise as the atmospherics would have charged in the period of darkness and the ice crystal’s would have gone.

Another indication that this picture is taken at night is the brightness of the lights on the shoreline.
They would not be on at 4.38 am the time of sunrise.

Sorry, the cop rides it WITHOUT A HELMET? That was my point.

Maybe they called for a M/cycle cop.

In my area of Norfolk the police have a contract or agreement with a large recovery firm, so would have thought the same applied to the rest of the country. So the problem of getting the scooter recovered would not arise. They would just inform the recovery company to recover the scooter. The recovery company would then invoice the owner for the recovery.
