Well they are putting the old sign back for the Packet Inn. At least I think they are, the item was so poorly worded in the parish council minutes for October,it could have related to something entirely different. Bit funny really, can you imagine, some wag knocking on your door asking for a pint of bitter or whatever. Tempting providence there I think.
As far as the Christmas charity money is concerned, I suspect that the money is going to sit in the vaults for years doing nothing. Who the heck do they think is going to fill in a form and admit to the parish council they are brassic. Beggar confidentiality, it gets out sooner or later, either big mouths or pillow talk. Not made themselves any friends with that decision.
Hillysyde want their street lighting on again and sending in a petition. Will that create more petitions from other street residents? Can you really create a precedent? I suppose they are hinging on the fact that it includes Swallow Court, and I suspect that the hours there are no lights wont bother Swallow Court residents too much.
Victoria Institute: "It was noted that any potential purchase of the building for use by the Parish Council would be considered by the Future Office Working Group."
Like a dog with a bone on that one and whatever happens you can bet your bottom dollar it will cost residents in the end with these mad money spending ideas.
New signs going up soon. don't exactly say which, again poor reporting, but I assume the ones that are supposed to say "Welcome to our Village" or similar, we will have to wait and see. Whatever they say they will have been a waste of money and totally unnecessary in these austere times.
Well all the activity down by Station Road was for the canal lock gates, leaking. Lots of activity, standing looking, standing observing, standing watching and even some working. Then you wonder why things cost a lot to get done.
