Minutes seem to be corrupted. Opening them using MS Word has loads of question marks and unreadable text. FYI
I’ve just put up approved Dec minutes and draft January minutes, Annie, and then opened them as a member of the public and it seems ok – let me know if you any more problems, Michele.
The 20 mile an hour signs around the village are long overdue but the signs on Loughbon are completely obscured by trees. In spring no one will see them at all!
Hi Sarah We have been in touch with the County council and this is being sorted out. Shirley Oates
There seem to be more and more heavy lorries going through the village, particularly since the sheds started going up off Smite Lane. I thought there was a weight restriction. If not there should be, with the schoolchildren at particular risk. Is there anything we can do about this?
