  They just wanted to retain the power to be able to evict him and be able to dangle it over him - they even admitted he was very good at paying rent on time.

  Imagine evicting a 90 year old in the winter - shame on them. That poor tenant, I imagine that could be quite deleterious to ones health.

  Thanks for the reply - I think we'll bite the bullet, but only refloor the part of the kitchen where the units are. The rest of the room is open plan / living room, so would have been different flooring anyway.

  Rather than do the whole lot (42sq metres) well just do the kitchen bit (c.15 sq metres). That seems to be the optimum way to approach without too much regret work later on.

  Thanks, the units are currently on the subfloor. Guess that means that there's be no excavation of the floor under the units needed when we came to change, sounds promising.

  We're about to do our kitchen. We were originally going to replace the floor at the same time, but for the sake of costs might just live with the tiles that are currently in there. The kitchen is already on a concrete / level floor so should not need work under the tiles.

  Does anyone know if it would possible to replace the tiles at a later date (in a few years perhaps) if the units are already there? Appreciate that it's likely harder and more expensive than doing it now, but for the sake of costs this year is it still a viable job to do?

  Surely PS5

  Just this week put some on my car - seems pretty good from what I can tell.

  I put N rated Michellins (PS2?) on my 996. They were way more expensive than equivalents, wouldn't bother (with N rated) next time.

  Ah no way - I didn't know they did that. I wonder why, there's only half a dozen of them on their website.

  You can presumably buy a real 1955 for cheaper than that. I'm not sure why you wouldn't...

  I thought they weren't legal in the UK for pedestrian safety? Or is there some import / exception that allows them.

  Having sandwiches for breakfast is also a bit weird.

  It must be nice to be able to have a job where you can send someone out to bring you a steak lunch though.

  Yes! It was. Got the pressure up enough to bleed the rad at the top of the house, which is now warming up.

  Amazing, thanks all.
