Hi Iain How I agree with you and the others about these blasted incomers, in this case the objector is, I believe, Lord Harmsworth, owner of a newspaper group, his lazy-bones holiday tenants don't like the idea of seeing the sea (or anything else) in the mornings. <VBG> Regards Pat W Bruton Somerset Researching Somerset -BEALE-KEEN-BRISTER-WILLIAMS-STOCK-HAWKEY Dorset - KEECH-DUNHAM-ACKERMAN-IRONSIDE-LEA-WALLIS-HOUNSELL-SAINT-RUSSELL-WOODSFO RD Durham - WARDELL-CHAPMAN-METHLEY Yorkshire - JEFFREY-DOBSON-DOYLE-MAUGHAN-CLIFFORD-BARKER-WADE-SWALE-ENGLAND-BECK-WAR DMAN-CARMALT -----Original Message----- From: IHPARSONS@aol.com [mailto:IHPARSONS@aol.com] Sent: 09 June 2003 21:14 To: ENG-DORSET-LIFE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [DOR-LIFE] Stoke Abbot Bells Dear all, Must add my contribution! I always felt that Stoke Abbott was a delightfully English village, free from the corruption of what is laughingly called the 'Home Counties' - they're not my home and never will be! The unspeakable arrogance of these incomers really gets to me. Just because they can afford to buy property at vastly infalted prices, thus preventing the youngsters born in the villages from continuing to live on their native patch, they think they own the world! Exactly the same thing has happened in the Lake District and now the taint is spreading to the whole of Cumbria. House prices have risen alarmingly over the past few years and, once again, the young folkk can't afford to buy. I see no solution, but when Carlisle and the surrounding area becomes commuter belt, what hope is there for the rest of the country? Ring the bells at 7.00 am! If they don't like it, they can move back to their polluted environments in the cities and let the Darzet volk get on with their loives!!
