Whatever the result, going against 121 objections sets a precedent that Lewes council would probably not have wanted to set!
Got waved trhrough at Planning Committee meeting last night, 2 letters of support, 123 objections. the lot of 'em!
Indeed. There was never the slightest chance it was going to be refused and that wasn't the point, but if it cost LDC even a few quid to process and send out the letters then it was worth it. And of course we had a laugh discussing it on this thread.At least it serves as a gentle reminder that we are watching her !
I feel that this 121-2 NSC triumph needs to be commemorated in some small way, so I've taken my lead from David Shepherd's 111 'Nelson' stand-on-one-leg oddity.
Therefore, the next time I'm watching cricket and the score reaches 121-2 - now to be known as a 'De Vecchi' - I'll take off my sunglasses and tilt them upwards to the sun in homage.
