    Thanks jttoou he has applied for permission, the notices are up on the lamp posts. We have until 23rd to register our objections. So he doesn't yet have permission but seems to be starting work already.

    Planning officer has told him to stop. We shall see if he comes back or not :(

    I have messaged the board guides to see if they can unmerge it but as it is the end of the week I'm sure a new thread will be fine.
