If the female accepts the stone, the male gets down to work,

It's widely believed we're in the grip of a housing crisis.

Limited social housing, soaring house prices and high rent charges are making it almost impossible for many people to get a foot on the housing ladder.

In North East Lincolnshire the council is looking into buying new houses and then renting them out to people on low incomes.

In Hull the housing crisis is being tackled head on. Dozens of local communities like the Goodwin Development Trust are taking matters into their own hands and started building their own affordable homes.
