In his latest letter to Radstock, the Mayor, Rupert Bevan told Nub News:

As the first glimmers of sunshine steal through the wooded batches of our valley, we are reminded that spring is not far off. Before long the sounds of two-stroke lawn mowers and Japanese strimmers will intrude on our week-end afternoons.

Time to think ahead and to plan. Last week I mentioned the Town Twinning event in Lançon-Provence. Personally, I am greatly looking forward to this. We well very well looked after last year and I know they have been preparing for our visit in May (20-24) since well before last Christmas. We will also be meeting delegates from Vogogna, Lançon's Italian twin-town. Please do think about joining in. You don't need to be a French speaker or empty your savings account- most things are found.

To celebrate VE Day, the May-Day Bank Holiday has been moved to Friday 08 May. Many parishes are organising street parties and other events to honour this important 75th anniversary.

What can we do in Radstock?
