It seems so! According to the layout shown on the council planning website there should be 4 P&C spaces immediately in front of the entrance but instead there are 8 to the side of the trolley bay. There should be 2 electric charging places near the main road in front of the store but they are at the opposite end of the car park. The disabled places are at least where they were supposed to be and it looked like there were about the right number (I didn't count them). But, of course - no cycle places.
Let's see how many weeks it takes the council to get round to processing my complaint! (If they haven't done anything by the New Year then I will push harder.)

I think I've posted earlier in another thread about how the marketing literature for a new housing estate (very) near our business park quoted one delighted resident "...and it's only 1 minute drive to work".

It was certainly a mix of workers from all over Europe! They used to shop in the old store up the road in their breaks. I didn't recognise some of the languages they were speaking.Possibly they had a team over from Germany to do the job

Ha ha.Possibly Lancastrians - you are dangerously close to the border...
It seems that the powers-that-be can't quite make up their minds what county Todmorden is now in... I have a Yorkshire council and a Lancashire post code. Forms on some websites insist on me using Lancashire as my county and others insist on West Yorkshire! Historically, the county boundary went down the middle of the Town Hall.

More than one official has simply crossed to the other side of the main chamber to avoid arrest.

Going off topic a litte (it is my thread after all
) The village where my eldest daughter lives has a lovely old church. The bells have been chiming there since the 1400hs, and chiming the hour since the late 1700s. A wonderful piece of history, much beloved by the locals.But lo! Along comes Johnny property developer, and a dozen of so "executive" homes are built on a piece of scrap land. You know the sort, made from Lego, all slightly different but still identikit looking, on a parcel of land barely bigger than the house itself, obligatory 5 series/Jag F Pace parked outside? Anyway, people who like paying top dollar to be crammed in with their like minded systems analysts and middle managers aren't the sort who are tolerant of noise, and thanks to a few complaints by the new lot the environmental health folk have had no choice but to silence the bells. If even a single person complains, and the complaint is found to be genuine, they have to act - the fact the noise was present 600 years before they moved in and is positively welcomed by the other 498 villagers is neither here nor there.
