Yeah I'm prob not going to bake cake for someone who is going to have cost us 5K or more in total.
A loft only takes 6 weeks too, not 6 months.
Just had a really nice and open sit down with our other neighbours, they are also nervous, we discussed what about and how we could alleviate those nerves (and their concerns), as adults do.
Her behaviour is what makes her a loon, not her decisions.

£5k? Shit. I was thinking it’d be a grand or something. Do the sausage thing.

Hollow laugh.
FWIW our neighbour said Yes on the doorstep without even reading the letter we wrote, then turned around a few weeks later and wanted to go down the surveyor route. He'd been spooked by the buildings equivalent of ambulance chasers who watch for the planning applications then contact the neighbours and convince them to appoint them.

Think about it from her point of view. She’s nervous. She’s going to find it stressful having a load of banging and crashing and vans parked everywhere and all that. There will probably be a few cracks in her house where your builders bosh in the steels. Your new dormer will look down on to her garden more than before. Etc etc. None of this is fun for her at all. She’s about to have 6 months of light suffering she doesn’t want.
Calling someone a fucking loon for being nervous and deciding to exercise her basic legal right seems a bit uncool to me.
Make a cake, take it round, give her a cuddle.
