Blimey...

This just adds further insult to injury!

1.6km away? Good job it's not a couple of hundred yards away, like Bonds bloody Garage, isn't it?

They've got a cheek.

Here's a jape. See if you can spot my alterations to their wording:

"Why, you may ask, is this project so important for Avebury that it is worth severely damaging some of our most dramatic, beautiful and best-loved views for it to go ahead?

It must be a nationally-important building of some kind, surely?

No. It is a private residential scheme of 5 houses.

Is that really all our heritage is worth?

So what can you do about it?

A Public Inquiry to decide whether this project should go ahead... didn't happen.

If you would like to help protect these views and stop the Bonds Garage houses, don't bother sending us any emails with your objections as it's too late."

Cheers Goff, I've just not sent them an email. like you suggest, and they've just not replied, like they did when I did.

Here are another two teasers:

Does that tower block screw up London to the degree that their scheme to build 2 miles of new dual carraigeway would have screwed up the Stonehenge WHS? (Easy one that).

Did an equivalent slideshow of THAT scheme (or the Avebury one) get posted on their site or indeed anywhere else on the net? (Even easier).
