One of those "Oops" moments.

Been a while since I was involved in a fullblown Planning/Conservation/Listed Building application, and a frustrating and protracted exercise it has been since November, not helped by a crisis in the relevant dept. due to maternity leave.
Yesterday the application was finally accepted after what seemed like forever fighting fog and chasing moving goalposts.Checking on the details on their website it became apparent that all the relevant documents were posted up in full ..... incuding all my snotty, sarcastic, and basically forthright letters !
Thank goodness I had toned them them down and saved the most caustic for verbal delivery along with the documents ... for instance my insistance that I was not personally responsible for their baby boom, or my opinion of their extended holidays over Christmas and the New Year, or how ineffective their weekly Training Days actually are.
I am sooooo glad I didn't put them all in writing.
Still gotta wait for the decision tho.
