PLANNING
There has been a plethora of curious planning applications relating to power lines in the lists recently. Each of them is described as 'consultation regarding refurbishment of overhead lines in the district' though each application is specific, the nearest to our patch being at Red Barn Farm on the Marlow/Lane End road. However, I am aware that some of you live close to power lines and you may be interested. I suspect that this will involve some disruption and, so far, Booker Common hasn't been mentioned. I suspect that more applications may be forthcoming.

If you are a UK tax payer (even if you receive building society interest base level tax is deducted hence you're a tax payer). The society will be able to claim from the goverment, without detriment to yourself, some 25 pence in every pound you donat. If your lucky to be in the 40% tax bracket it will reduce your higher tax burden (you effectively get some back).
