no tax no mot no insurance

[MikeD]

Impressive display of bikemanship Mike, I'm still getting flash backs of them chain male face masks with those round eye holes, like something from a Jackson video... How do they manage to steer so precisely at that speed with only the back wheel touching the ground.

Most of them have been riding bikes since they were four years old. They are usually still under ten years old when the pop their first wheelie.

If he is doing a school run every morning, then clearly your statement is wrong. Would you be willing to provide the registration numbers of his vehicles parked in front of his and your house. which you claim are not taxed, Insured and have no M.O.T and the authorities refuse to take any action on. Thanks in advance.

Are you saying that " traveller" kids don't go to school?
Plenty do.

I did not say " traveller" kids don't go to school ? What I did say was 'If he is doing a school run every morning, then clearly your statement is wrong' and this was a direct reply to the O.P. statement to the effect he did not care about anyone. If he was taking his kids to school every day then clearly he does.

No Problem, something most if not all of us are guilty of at times. Especially me.

Then you live on a private road, with public access if the public can use it, and of course you will pay for any upkeep as its on your deeds as your property.
I don't envy you.

Not at all. The houses (except one private house and the Orlett houses) own the road outside their houses to the centre of the road, the farm that owns the field on the other side owns the other half of the road. The road has been made up and is maintained by the council, they also insure it. It is a public right of way. The council confirmed the ownership and responsibilities when we bought the land, they said it is a little strange in the National context but not unusual in this area due to the historic nature of land ownership and the influence of the Lairds past and current - still a big influence as to the how, who, why, where and when. We do pay extra council tax though.

Then who can stop you selling your little bit of road.
It's on your deeds as being your property so in the eyes of the law it's yours to sell.... Or dig up and plant veg on.

Most unusual indeed but a similar anomily in Scarborough....
You will be hard pressed to find a freehold flat anywhere in the town.... Every flat is leasehold, even if you own the whole block.

There is a covenant that full and free access and passage has to be allowed (so that stops it being dug up as a garden). I'm pretty sure that it can not be sold separately from the rest of the property, I think that is why it is why it is and why the council was not able to take ownership, something about not being able to subdivide any allocated plot without the prior permission of both the Laird and the Baron, our Feudal Superiors. The Baron died some years ago and trying to get his trustees to agree to anything (they are based in Switzerland) is an achievement. Remember we are in Scotland and there is no freehold or leasehold, we hold our land feuhold.

When we bought an additional piece of land we kept the deeds separate to avoid complications should we ever want to sell it again or develop it.

Feuhold - Similar to freehold in the rest of the UK. Whilst you own both the property and the land it is built on, a 'Feudal Superior' has an interest in the title of the property and may impose restrictions.

If you have to ask is pointless trying to explain
