    yes loosely as I mentioned to them first before they purchased the house. As I wanted to be upfront, that we were doing it at some point in the future.

    They proceeded with sale and moved in. Within days they had the loft people round. They clocked me and said “oh hi” as I was in the garden. Owner casually mentioned they are looking to do a loft conversion too!

    It’s only when I spoke the guys who went round post appointment. They said FYI your neighbours are planning a dormer that side. The loft people said if we tied it in together it would be cheaper. Which I think appealed to nextdoor however I don’t want a dormer our side as it’s all sorts of problems for us, shadowing ours. If they want windows it would look into our daughter’s room etc.
