Chaps,
If the words sucking and eggs come to mind please forgive me, however, I have been present at 3 Planning Application meetings where each side was given 3 minutes to put their case forward. In each case, the speaker who counted upon emotion and getting the council on his side due to hardship etc etc lost the case. Whoever is in touch with the guy from ARSE who is going to speak for us, can they please let him know. On each ocassion, the team that concentrated upon contradicting the evidence (traffic, noise, pollution etc) won the day. I know that they probably appreciate this fact but just thought they may like to know.
Mr-B
