Hi Christine.  I had hoped when we had all the discussions about adding more greenery to dull parts of the Estate, which Jonny Hazell was involved with, I thought things may improve.  However, the only outcome to that was a large pot plant added to the entrance of Great Arthur House!  I was told by the Estate office that that was all the budget covered for!! 

I don't think that's good enough.  The City are making a lot of money out of the guest flats, and run it like a 'business', so they should make the effort to improve the overall appearance of the area.  Not so long ago, on the 2nd floor there were some empty planters, that were filled with cigarette butts!  Hardly a good advert!  I managed to get this cleared away. 

I will look into this further, and see what may be done. 

Many thanks, and yes, you must come up soon and have a drink with me, outside when we have really good weather. XXXX
