I've heard of some businesses just getting on with it (eg put up a sign and wait to see what happens, rather than stick to the guidelines/trading regulation)- a lot of the time the council do nothing about it. A degree of risk taking required there.

LETS MAKE THIS COUNTRY COMPETITIVE AGAIN- AND GIVE CONSUMERS CHOICE "Yes We Can". Do spill the beans if you're getting crap from the council, who seem happy for the country to go down the pan
