More embankment work?
[scroll down for town centre signage story]
This letter's landed on some doormats across parts of Langport and Huish in recent days detailing yet more heavy plant work on the railway line on North Moor throughout this month and until August next year.
This has got to be an administrative error right?
Surely it's finished. It all looks tidy, done and dusted.
Or is it those pesky badgers again? Still causing tens of thousands of pounds worth of delays? [That's the badgers that can be legally culled not so many miles away down in Devon]
Yep, it's a topsy turvy world folks.

LOCAL COUNCILS ADMIT THEY DON'T SPEAK SIGN LANGUAGE...
One long-running and much-loved Langport Cafe has been asking since July if it could have a small 'A' board or banner or sign of some sort somewhere in the town centre to tell people about itself - up there on the corner opposite the Whatley turning.
Shifted from pillar to post since the summer - at a time when cafes are struggling - suffice it to say the cafe in question still doesn't have permission for its sign.
That's despite other similar businesses having 'A' boards in the centre of town.
Frustrating to say the least.
So, in true Christmas spirit, Carry On Langport has decided to step in and give the old place some free advertising.
Here ya go.
or how about this one:
or even this effort?
What do you reckon?
Seriously though, all they want is a small sign. Nothing as daft as the above.
Come on, whether it's a district or town council decision...
...if a fairly new-to-Langport trader can get a wooden shack/stall put up in the town centre without so much as a murmur of consultation with nearby businesses...then surely a local cafe can have an 'A' board?
Just like the others?
