What's mildly amusing you today?

OK thanks, then this is a private deal and they just jumping through the proper hoops.

Nothing puts up people's backs more than a planning application of any size that appears as a bolt from the blue.

Absolutely, we old farts don't like change... or whippersnappers on the lawn.

Land has always been a contentious commodity for you folks, hasn't it.
The very few that had it, and the power to hold it which is just as important, could rent it out or hire people directly to work it for them.
And everybody else can go to...


...the new world.
There really wasn't much choice. You wouldn't need land to be a fisherman, but where are you going to live? butcher, baker, candlestick maker... need a shop.
I guess an executioner could camp out.
That whole situation with the land is real alien to us over here. But may not be for long.
