A few d glazing/glass questions

I recently (3 weeks ago) had a old wooden bedrooom window framereplaced by a dg one. The company did a good job and we are happy withit. A couple of days later they sent us a fensa cert and somedocumentation describing the window (size/type etc etc).Since then, I heard that we should have notified the council first. Isthis correct and should I do so in retrospect now? Another "rumour" is that it is not possible to just go and buy a pieceof glass from "Joe's glass shop" - the reason has to bespecified!!!!!! I thought this a bit amazing (but this is NLRed-Britain) until yesterday I noticed Joe's shop had closed down.Coincidence or any truth in it? (sigh) isn't it sooo difficult to do anything legal any more!

Full of time wasters - at least the London one.

Which is why an overpaid bunch of t*ssbags wanted everyone to move down south recently.

I found our local one much the same. These days, I don't even take a look to see if it has changed.
