Yes indeed - collapse, gaping hole = whoops!

Think of all that extra rain that we are being promised now as a result of climate change. Seen the news footage of mudslides all over the world? There's a big whoops coming soon if the hill ain't fixed soon. Have your scheduled meeting certainly, but if there are calls for more surveys, investigations, reports, publication of everything as consultative documents and further responses to the responses then its - whoops and whooosh!

I bet that the guys that built Silbury didn't spend forever asking everybody how to do it and what shape it should be.

Sorry Peter, you are way out on the last point, Avebury Parish Council were set up around 2000 BC, and although they were agreeable Kennet District Planners said "you're not putting that there !"

VBB :o)

And how's that analagous to a public body answerable to a nation repairing an existing 4500 yr old national monument?????

I dunno why I'm bothering tho. Your most convincing argument was simply that you believe we should trust EH. We're obviously not gonna change each others minds.
