[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1148652, member: 176704"] Except, when as John does, it gets wheeled into a building (in his case, his garage) and so disappears - but, I agree that just making the dish mobile by adding wheels is "stretching a point" a long way! OTOH, but, hey, one is often dealing with coucil "box tickers" and so you might use that route if it works for you! FWIW, we had a similar problem over 20 yrs ago when local council planners would not let us build a conservatory up to the property boundary because that would mean that the conservatory wall was not at 90, but more like 110, deg to the house wall, even though the neighbours had no objections!. Then my architect had a brainwave - build that wall and an adjacent bit of the conservatory under "permitted development" which we were legally able to do without planning permission , and [I]then apply for planning permission for the rest of the conservatory! [/I]Which is what we did with no further council objections - so we now have a "conventionally weird" [I](it's actually pentagonal, with no 2 walls parallel to each other!)[/I] shaped conservatory which actually "fits" the property and the garden layouts far better than what the council wanted to initially insist on, and we've never had any objections from neighbours, including the 2 families that bought next door after the conservatory was erected. So, lateral-thinking may often solve/get around local box-ticker objections without causing any real problems (except taking longer and costing more than the obvious/no solution routes") [/QUOTE]
