It must have been a close decision

[Ben Houchen @BenHouchen]

I’m proud of Steve Gibson and @Boro for refusing to join the European Super League. Well done guys 👏

True....but then again it’s not a new phenomenon

In 100 years historians will be wondering why developers were made to build fake bricked up windows. Instead of, I don’t know, maybe actual windows.

It’s lucky you concentrated during the PowerPoint lesson 😉

Well, as several teachers predicted, at 50 years of age I have no discernible income and I cut my own hair.

The clever people at AMS are proud to launch our interactive HDT mapping application.

UK house prices are 6.5% higher than a year ago.

This follows the news that more homes were delivered last year than in any year since 1987. Clearly delivery is not resulting in affordability.

Very useful article on how the Coronavirus outbreak affects the posting of site notices. Despite the current restrictions, for the majority of applications there is no reason (in theory) why LPAs cannot fulfil their legal duty to publicise applications.

[Lichfields @LichfieldsUK]

Regulations permitting remote access to local authority meetings by members, press and the public (amongst other things) come into force on 4 April.
Local IT capabilities will vary & local policies may still require amendment.
