Thanks for the apology, @JohnLewisRetail. It looks as if my mother's wait for her 93rd birthday present will go on for some time yet. The actions of one customer don't matter, of course. But as long as John Lewis uses @RoyalMail I will not use John Lewis.

Misses the point. It's not that they will be an eyesore - they will - no new pylon corridor is needed. What is needed is a public enquiry. RT: Concerns raised with Yousaf and Sunak over proposed pylon plans news.stv.tv/highlands-isla…

We can connect the UK with Belgium, Germany and Ireland with sub-sea cables but it's 'too expensive' to link Beauly to Peterhead via the Moray Firth. Apparently. No thought for the environmental or human cost. @SSETransmission @BBCHighlands @drewhendrySNP bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotla…

@3DWTech @SSETransmission Yes most of them outraged and appalled and signing petitions on the way out!

'Consultation'? Should be a two-way process. Not just an obvious and slick box-ticking exercise.'No you can't object'. Beauly to Peterhead line another of SSEN's controversial pylons plans @BBCHighlands @drewhendrySNP @SSETransmission @PinewoodStead heraldscotland.com/news/23441433.…
