I saw Shaw Hill was shut at the Love Lane end this morning. Looked like a house part way down had been gutted by fire

hmm... wonder if that's anything to do with the owner wanting to turn it into flats?

Was a fine house. Surely no one is that stupid? I expect we'll next be hearing tales of gangs of kids in the area wearing hoddies. http://www.cshomes.co.uk/images/dolmans_sketch.jpg |

QUOTE (Dodgys smarter brother. @ Aug 10 2011, 10:28 AM) No. The article refers to NTC's opinion on the application - resulting, I assume, in an objection to the plans. WBC make the real decision, not NTC. |

Up to then NBC was the planning authority for Newbury. |

Thanks for that.
Gummer eh? Them was the days.. Famously called a "drittsekk" by the Norwegian Minister of Environmental Affairs, Thorbjørn Berntsen, who commented (in translation), - "John Gummer is the biggest s***bag I have ever met." after Gummer had refused to discuss an acid rain problem on Norwegian soil. |
