Lyme Regis Town Council
Full Council
Meeting
A lot of support for Stone Balancer under threat
Adrian Gray in the Public Forum, speakers in favour of the continuation of
this unusual and fascinating art include Laurence Anholt, and Hugh
Dunford-Wood among others. Interesting to note that during our last
Adventure on the beach with Dr. Colin Dawes, we found that quite a few
people are taking up stone balancing, and we even did a video of one young
man making a very creditable pile. Its becoming a beach activity! I'm not
sure anyone understands the council's view of concessions. If you can't
make money doing it, theres really no point in having a concession. What
is the difference between the Bouncy Castle taking money, and the Stone
Balancer selling pictures? 45 minutes of council time was taken up in
discussion of this.
Other topics discussed included the BMX Track, and
more importantly, the discussion of purchase of land for a new Club for
Young People.
Apologies for the sound
balance here and there, but as we weren't personally at the meeting, we
were unable to monitor the sound, though we offer a large round of
applause, and a pint of guinness to our temp Audio Operative for the
evening, he didn't do a bad job really don't you think? (the
LymeRegisRadio team were at the Chantmarle near Dorchester having been
nominated for a Community Champions Award!)
