    It's Tick Time

    Just pulled another tick off one of my dogs, it's that time of year again. This was a small one so no harm done as it was found quickly, but be careful dog lovers and don't just trust the tick guard, you have to also check all over the dog's skin, paws, ears and bum.

    "Death by unnatural causes"

    I see this from time to time in RE ads, I guess is to warn people who may have a cultural sensitivity. Does another know more about the problems with owning a property which has had such a thing occur?

    A question for the drafties and planners please - when putting a detached granny flat on a lot, what is the minimum separation from the existing house? I guess having windows or not, cladding etc would effect the distance but what are the basics? Thanks
