I HEAR the council is increasing the Council Tax again.

I look along Lyngford Road, Lyngford Place, and wonder what we are paying for now!

Lyngford Road floods outside the shop on the corner with Priorswood Road, the corner of Lyngford Road and Lyngford Place floods, the waste bin has been removed on that same corner so all the rubbish is either blowing in the wind or stuffed into my hedge!

We used to have a road sweeper, a human being who litter picked once a week on the pavements.

Taunton is getting like Aleppo after all.
