Talk of koi carp reminds me of a story from one of Jeremy Clarkson's books, talking about pet fish becoming more popular than dogs ... They don’t come when they’re called, they don’t bark at strangers, they won’t fetch sticks, they’re not cute and, being fairground goldfish, I’m fairly sure they wouldn’t be delicious either. Honestly, it’d be more rewarding to own a pet rock. And don’t think things improve if you move up the evolutionary scale and go for a koi carp. My dad did that, and spent many happy hours watching them gliding around his garden pond, gorging on the psoriasis flakes that fish call food. Then one Christmas I bought him half a dozen ‘ghost koi’ which looked very splendid in the tank at the pet shop. Unfortunately, in my dad’s pond we learnt why they are called ‘ghost’ fish. It’s because they are completely invisible. And what’s the point of a pet you can’t see? Sadly, I also discovered that in the fish world they are the SAS among carp, approaching their prey silently and killing without pity or remorse. So within a day, all my dad’s beloved orange fish were upside down on the surface, leaving him with a pond full of apparently nothing at all. My advice, then, is simple. If you want a fish, get it from the chip shop.

Also, lots of helpful Youtube videos available. Example ...

Didn't you read that the scumbag step-father threatened to kill her mother if she told anyone?

I'm pretty sure that you can apply early and up to nine months can be added to your 10 years. So no time lost. Scratch that. I just found out that there was a change due to Brexit. No time added for an early application apparently.

What are the real numbers, and what is your reliable source?

Trying to look on the positive side - I just had a quick look at transport options from MAN to Leeds. The Trans-Pennine Express is cheap, and I guess there will be some quite interesting/spectacular scenery on the way. https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo/leeds-to-manchester-railway.html

Looks like someone has blocked the footpath with a row of plant pots, forcing pedestrians to walk into the road. At least the red paint will disguise the blood.

Looks like it is available. http://www.geotextile-thailand.com/ and https://www.facebook.com/terrafixthailand/posts/1089802994401544/ But the website isn't very helpful.
