hi lads
my facebook picture is of me and my wife, i,m the good looking one on the left, there,s only about 5 jerry gleesons on facebook so i shouldnt be that hard to find.
Failing that send me your names and i,ll add you.
tight lines
jerry

if you get the same search results as me, i,m the 3rd one down and wearing a white shirt and my wife is on the left
cheers
jerry

come on guys 31 members over night, not bad but the membership needs to grow.
the intentions are to send a link to the council to show that local people care about the surroudings and that the money could be better spent in the community
cheers and tight lines
jerry

i,ve just had a nosy on the planning application website for both schemes and otterspool has 8 objections, pearmill has 6 objections so far. the 6 people who left objections on pearmill also left objections to otterspool, which means only 8 people have objected.
1 person from hampshire kindly left an objection and at a guess i would assume has probably never visited the river (although i could be wrong), now if somebody from so far away has objected why haven,t the locals, its far to easy to sit on the fence and pretend the problem will go away, if you care about the river its surroundings and obviously your fishing get your objection letters in
tight lines all
jerry

Jerry. Could you let me have the addys for the planning website pages that list the objectors. The web address I look at seems to list no appeals as yet. Your addresses must be more up to date.

Is the Alam Butterworth objection one of them? I hope so, it is good stuff, especially the part where he says the return should be directly into the weir itself. This would scupper their existing plan and leave the beach largely untouched, if they acted on that,. although the flow pattern in the weir would still be greatly changed of course.

I wonder if any of us will be invited to the planning meeting?



Only 8 objections, but 30 odd on your facebook site. Very disappointing guys. Even more important to ensure that the facebook protest is sent to the planners, with detaiuls of numbers of "faces".

89 members on facebook, I spoke to the planning office, they said its more the content of the letters than the volume of complaints.

Lets hope that they are some educated people with enough foresite to see that this scheme is just a waste of money and time.
