    Yes, I went to a Bentley Owners' presentation by Mullin's architect just before Christmas (Bentley is supporting the project). Great idea, superb design, but encountering a lot of resistance from local residents, led by Sir Patrick Stewart (Star Trek) who are trying to prevent it getting the go ahead from the local planning authority. Decision due very shortly. The event was combined with a tasting of Mullin's wine from his vineyard in Italy - very good stuff!:)
