Representation Summary:

We went through 6 years of Hell (2008 - 2014) fighting and winning a traumatic, stress-inducing, time-consuming and costly battle against proposals to have a gravel pit on this site and you have the audacity to write to me and ask if I want to object to it all starting again? Do I want to object? DO I WANT TO OBJECT?
How strange things are in this 18th century staging post Forge, where I write, with roots back to the Domesday Book and beyond - Saxon ? , it nestles into a Hill Fort Rampart, a Ley Line runs through the Church and Forge - right through one of the hearths, where we light our Fire and pray-chant-spell: Ignei—Aerii—Aquantani—Terra, Spiritus salvete!
Here, in the front line of muck and bullets, we live life to the full, with all its ancient traditions, rituals, ceremonies intact.
Hasn't the village suffered enough ?
NO, WE DO NOT WANT THE BLOODY PIT
NO, NORFOLK DOES NOT NEED OUR GRAVEL
Haddiscoe has given enough gravel in the past, Wiggs Lane, behind the village hall, the -now- fishing lake (Cemex) and the Parish Pit, Gravel Pit Lane. There is a huge operation at Norton/Heckingham, only 3-4 miles away, which will be producing gravel for many more years, so I think we've done and are doing our bit!
NO It's too near two beautiful churches
Too near lots of peoples' houses.
Too near, across the fields, a school.
Too near a Dog Kennels, why should the doggies have to suffer dust, grit and noise.
Yours, in real anger (real politik) at the audacity I have been asked to comment on,

We went through 6 years of Hell (2008 - 2014) fighting and winning a traumatic, stress-inducing, time-consuming and costly battle against proposals to have a gravel pit on this site and you have the audacity to write to me and ask if I want to object to it all starting again? Do I want to object? DO I WANT TO OBJECT? DO FROGS FART ON LILY PADS?

How strange things are in this 18th century staging post Forge, where I write, with roots back to the Domesday Book and beyond - Saxon ? , it nestles into a Hill Fort Rampart, a Ley Line runs through the Church and Forge - right through one of the hearths,where we light our Fire and pray-chant-spell: Ignei—Aerii—Aquantani—Terra , Spiritus salvete!

Here, in the front line of muck and bullets, we live life to the full, with all its ancient traditions, rituals, ceremonies intact.

So, every time we light one or both of our inside fires (we have 13 altogether, in and out), we chant this prayer:

Sint mihi dei acherontis propitii!
Valeat numen triples Jehovae!
Ignei, Aerii, Aquantani, Terra,
Spiritus salvete!

Followed by a Celtic spell in honour of Brighid, Goddess and Christian Saint, which I'll leave out here, those interested can come to the Forge and learn it from Wendy.

Now, when we have some wickedness, such as evil, greedy b......s trying to ruin everyones' lives, we read the full version, with all the Elizabethan Magick and Alchemy, much used by William Shakespeare, Sir Walter Raleigh, Christopher Marlow, Francis Drake, John Dee, John Donne, Sir Philip Sydney, Francis Bacon......

All of which I sent you before, in our previous exchanges.

Hasn't the village suffered enough ?

NO, WE DO NOT WANT THE BLOODY PIT

NO, NORFOLK DOES NOT NEED OUR GRAVEL

Haddiscoe has given enough gravel in the past, Wiggs Lane, behind the village hall, the -now- fishing lake (Cemex) and the Parish Pit, Gravel Pit Lane. There is a huge operation at Norton/Heckingham, only 3-4 miles away, which will be producing gravel for many more years, so I think we've done and are doing our bit!

NO It's too near two beautiful churches (why they don't have the wrath of God fall on them - the would-be re-applicants), I do not know, if I was a Christian, I'd give it up, if the Pit went ahead - but then, God allows all sorts of Holocausts to happen, perhaps he is not a proponent of an eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth (Lex Talionis) as his Yaweh persona orders, but what I, as a (K)Cabalist Jew expound: give them enough rope and they'll hang themselves (hang on- no pun- I believe in Lex Talionis too).

Too near lots of peoples' houses.

Too near, across the fields, a school.

Too near a Dog Kennels, why should the doggies have to suffer dust, grit and noise.
