Thanks everyone - mission accomplished!

We got 550 letters of objection by the first (statutory) deadline. We could have had more - many are still coming in, but that was enough to get us in a wide variety of press coverage, including TV, Radio and Papers. This concludes the first phase of our campaign.

"Talk" is the theme for August - we will be trying to take the henges to a much broader audience - anyone who fancies dropping a few leaflets in letterboxes just let me know.

If any of you are at a loose end and want to come and talk henges, Thornborough Action will be at the Aldborough Show close to Borroughbridge tomorrow. We will have our "Mobile Henge Display Unit" with us and that always draws attention - the headline is "Triple Temple to the Stars!"

To all of you who just writing a letter was enough effort for now - thanks a lot and rest easy, I'm willing to bet there will be a new application in about six months time - I'll come knocking then.

PS.

Don't think for a minute we think a few letters of objection will win this - they won't. There's a lot to be done. We are a very young campaign - still getting up to speed in areas. We decided that hitting the first deadline with a record number of objections would put that particular objective to bed allowing us to concentrate on other aspects of the campaign. With everyone's help we hit that target - a very important statement both for Thornborough and our campaign.
