What's on this bank holiday weekend then?
Let's start with the pubs!
The Wyndham Arms is finally back at Kingsbury Episcopi on Saturday. Looks like it's opening its doors around midday and we believe it could be a ticket only event, with music group The 45s playing.
You'll have to see what you can find out online.
In Huish, there's a carboot sale on the field at the Rose & Crown on Sunday afternoon. It runs from 12 until 3pm when local band The Painkillers are due to start playing.
There's also live music at the Halfway House on Sunday where Bad Edukation are playing from 2pm after which the Pitney pub's laying on a BBQ.
Other events and sticking with Kingsbury, the village May Festival is on Monday. Now a large event with the lion's share of stalls, displays and music being held on the field, drivers will be charged £10 to park.
But check out the road closures and parking routes, these maps are from the festival organisers.
Looks like a complete closure on the day between Muchelney and Kingsbury [between 10am and 7pm] but cyclists can still get through.
A handful of other events are going on too, let's keep our fingers crossed for the weather, bring every brollie you've got is Carry On Langport's official advice.
Finally high street business William Hill says it's abandoned any plans for people to bet on whether or not the town council will decorate Langport Town Hall or the town centre with any red white and blue for the coronation in just over a week's time.
"Having done diddly squat for the Queen's diamond jubilee, odds are off" said a spokeswoman for the bookmaker, "you'd be more likely to see the chuckle brothers up Langport church tower" she added.
Oh hang on though...
The brand new mast on the roof of All Saints tower will most definitely be flying the union flag over the town for our new head of state next weekend thanks to Langport District Friendly Society [and a local bellringer]
Good work!
[the knob on top's rather splendid too]
