It isn't the marvellous Christmas lights that their putting up is it?

[Andy Millne]

Nope some new full height street lights. Theres also about 10-12 smaller lamp posts in the Market Place itself so should be reasonably well lit.

We've had information that this issue and the results of the poll are likely to be produced at the next Town Council meeting. If you haven't already voted in the poll you should do so without delay to make sure your opinion counts.

Nope, I was last person to post a reply but the last activity was somebody voted in the poll which also bumps the topic. Slightly confusing I know.

Has anybody else noticed the death traps they have incorperated into the stones in their feature outside Tesco? I'm on about the stainless steel protruding plates they have placed between the top stones of the wall.A danger to joe public or what?

I think they are temporary spacers are they not?

On further scrutiny they are screwed into place,so I would say they are a permanent fixture. Watch out the new cooncil, compen claims in abundance heading your way!

heres the answer:

The metal plates are to prevent skateboarders/ bmx users using the copes for girding and such like, therefore protecting thestone. Others areas of cope will have railings.

If you have any further queries pleaseemail or call.
