And if you get the hard copies, it's one hell of an enormous box :-) and a
dent in someone's wallet!

Some real issues in terms of the proposals and the impact on property with
Crossrail looking to take the freehold of a number of prime central London
properties - likely to be some very tough petitioning going on in the next
few weeks. And it's not just the properties over which the freehold is
sought that are raising issues; the owners and occupiers of Hanover Square
look like they are going to be up in arms over the construction site.

Interesting times ahead!
