Guys
My persoal feelings on this are : always go carefully, in my situation I have my Parish Council all the landowners around and 99% of the village behind me. This has only come about by being a good and considerate neighbour. Most of all do not kick the arse out of it, no one likes having the perverbial taken and try and keep everyone or more realistic the majority on side. It is surprising what local support can do v officaldom.
Everyone have a happy xmas and a safe flying 2005
