.....And finally, just a heads up to those in the Telford area. The local plan (the document that says what is and is not allowed in terms of planning) is now being updated. You can get copies from the Borough Council. At the moment it contains a provision saying "there shall be no flying from a private strip in the Telford and Wrekin area." Public consultation has now begun. If you want that provision removed - you MUST write in and object to it, otherwise it will stay.
