panoma1 Posted March 11, 2019 Report Share Posted March 11, 2019 How/why is the pond/water blue? Never seen a blue flightpond! Is blue water good for the wildlife it allegedly holds/attracts? 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Envy, jealousy and of course if the neighbours are aware that he was told he couldn't build a swimming pool but plainly has done so, they are probably very keen to see it removed.

figgy Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 Nothing as funny as folk. If it was at the back of a house overlooked and could be a noise issue. I can understand planners saying no. In the middle of a filed that's planted up, seems very petty to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that! It's wealthy and/or powerful people who use their wealth to break the rules everyone else has to live by! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NatureBoy Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 Recon blue etc in the pics has been retouched? Looks all planted up around and in it. Done by well known wild swimming pond company tho. Another big one they done locally a while back looks great now its established and matured. Loads of wildlife around and in it. Could be best of both worlds. All the other trees and shrubs he's had planted up round it will look good and benefit wildlife to. Tho he's had run ins with planners over a chapel and cart lodge etc in past to. Used to fish some lovely old secluded ponds near there that had 2lb plus pure crusian carp big rudd and huge eels in them. good times! Most cleared out by mink and otters now.
