A planning application has been submitted for the mast at Quay West Holiday Park in New Quay, Ceredigion. Henry Dent and Lauren Bromley fear the 70ft (21m) mast, which would overlook their home, could affect its value. Haven Holidays, which owns the land, said the mast would enhance mobile coverage in what can be a congested area during the summer. Henry Dent, a 44-year-old business owner, said: "All the work we've both put into this house it just feels like it's being taken away from us. "We feel invisible basically like they've completely brushed us aside. It's already taken a toll on me, I've lost a lot of sleep over this. "Worrying, feeling completely powerless - a small objection on a portal online is the only voice I have. "It's devastating. We've put everything we have into this property. It's our forever home," he added. In a literal sense does a "forever" home's value actually matter...? Jeez, that Dent family have nae luck. His dad, Arthur, had his house flattened by bulldozers to make way for a bypass, iirc. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plate thing is to stop people massively overloading their plates to take food home with them. I did read the article, and the landlord was scathing, calling the guy a “cheapo Charlie” and going on about how everyone else gave them five star ratings so much that a cynical person might think they cooked up the whole stooshie as a publicity stunt. *by which I mean good which has been heated to be served hot, and not food which is simply hot as a consequence of being heated to improve the flavour. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, yeh wasnt sure if they charge more as the VAT due is different depending on if you sit in or take away. Might have been confusing myself with regard to that pasty tax debacle a while back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, VAT would apply on food when eaten on the premises which is why some of the products have different prices depending on where it's consumed. Some items, such as chocolate biscuits or hot food have VAT on them regardless of where they're eaten so their prices don't vary. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
