Is a railway stop or station at all possible? A concrete seat /ledge in the shelter opposite the Bird in Hand (not comfortable enough to encourage teenage congregation but just somewhere for teh elderly to perch when waiting for the bus.) The village hall stage to have a drop and a box set which can be easily assembled and painted. (At present the Festival Committee is organising rehearsals for over thirty young people for the "Dick Whittington's Cat" pantomime. Having to borrow from other places to assemble the sets will eventually discourage adults from continuing to provide this useful village activity. In the past, not just actors but also used the old woodland drop (I noticed how tatty the silver strips are now becoming). It would be wise to encourage a more professional looking stage whilst the festival committee are still being enthusiastic.

I have left many questions unanswered because a) they were not applicable, didn't affect me b)I do not like "should" questions 3.09 Timetables can be bought from the bus station and Travel 6 3.10 Bus stops - I need to be able to sit down, in the dry AND be able to see when a bus is coming. See Cleeve - (Bristol bound) - the near perfect bus stop. DO NOT let anyone replace/redo a bus shelter without asking someone who uses the bus. The stop by the Angel is a prime example of money being spent uselessly, 3.11 I do cycle, separation from cars would make life pleasanter and safer. 5.03 If you want the village newsletter to be a means of communication - 3 times a year is not enough. 6.03 More seats scattered perhaps would be more use - On the rec, public footpaths Dawson's walk etc. 6.06 Depends on the buses. BRI is fine. Southmead not. Clevedon no buses. WSM takes forever. 7.08 More planting, more upkeep. A shrub warden? 8.02 Pavements. Why not ask people to cut shrubs back? i.e ask them personally if they are able. Pay to help if not. 9.03 More jobs in L.A. may not lessen traffic 11.07 There is already several yoga classes & 2 taichi 8.01 Walking I walk anyway. Safer would mean pleasant AND safer. p.s. I would like a public loo near the village hall.
