Maybe stand back and see what happens. You have made your point, but been overruled by everyone else.
Cheers,
Having been tasked by the council to deliver the cable route plan to the church authorities, I handed it to the church wardens on site who have placed it at the mains position as suggested by the sparky.
As you say, we will see what happens.
At our last meeting, one councillor , a friend of the sparky, when I again raised the issue, pointing out that the admission of wrong doing was not in the minutes, immediately jumped in and said: "What's the problem, they will find the cables right away with a metal detector"
This same chap, a builder, told us at an earlier meeting that a couple of years ago he had dug up and damaged a gas pipe. Gas board came out and told him the repair would have to come out of his builders insurance. He replied with the usual: **** off, that pipe was not deep enough and there was no tape above it"
See what I am up against?
Will let the forum know if I hear of any damage to the cables.
Thanks to all for your help. It is much appreciated.
