Thank you all.
I can see i opened up a can of worms so to speak lol!!

I have been out in the fields next to the ones they are digging up and found nothing but i do have a dog and two wee boys under 5 with me, if i saw me and heard my brood coming i would duck for conver too!!
I do like cats although after being on a lot of forums mainly this one i am going off them a bit!!
Beekeeper i don't mind anyone jumping in on my posts at all, i find it very interesting in fact
Dampflippers i have a long list of things to get onto council about regards to litter on these fields and paths leading up to the bulldozers so thanks for making me realise i can get onto them, i did wonder if any reports had been completed before digging i doubt it though. I love making the council work for their money
Kiwi i'm sorry i have stirred up such emotion, i do know how you feel though, each time i look at the bulldozers working i get angry but, i don't really get much time to think about it now i have kids, i don't have time for anything now to be honest!!! I do my bit though and i'm content with that as i can be.
Thanks again guys for your replies i am going to get onto the council to see if any surveys were completed. I will of course let you know what they say.
