Breakthrough for SnOasis

I was just thinking he is a bit like The Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland because it's always "Jam tomorrow, never today". Work is always going to start later in the year, in a few weeks....but it never does!

"Hopes that work will start on the £300m SnOasis project next month have been described as 'laughable' by campaigners against the scheme" - according to my EADT today. "But Godfrey Spanner, manager for the SnOasis project said he was confident that once a business plan on the new railway station on the site in Great Blakenham, near Ipswich, is completed, work can start and will be finished by 2016. Mr. Spanner who was declared bankrupt in March last year and forced to resign as a company director, said.....We are behind schedule. I'm desperate to start digging by the spring and hoping it will be finished by 2016. I'm doing nothing else."

(Perhaps if he's so keen to do some digging, he could come and do my garden instead!)

Sadly, I think I will be past it by the time this place is built (if ever) and I have difficulty taking a guy called Godfrey Spanner seriously! :roll:

We done this a while ago for Swansea when I said if you have a Spanner the works why do you think this will happen :(
