Having seen the committee I dont think it is exactly representative of the demographic of Frome and so I hope you take everyone's opinions on board. If you are looking 20 years ahead you should definitely be trying to get the opinion of the youth (sadly their opinion will not go far beyond skate parks and such - and good luck to em!).

£45,000 to spend on consultation - sounds about right. How about we dont bother about the consulation and DO SOMETHING PRACTICAL? (How about sack the comittee and have a big party for all where the invitation specifies you have to fill in a questionairre on the futute of frome?, or just give the kids what they want with the 45k!)

Never mind. After the credit crunch and the coming depression have had their effects seen out we might just be back to normal in 20 years so I suggest planning in a good street party and some fireworks. Might seem appropriate after the hard times that are coming. The council might be able to cope with that timescale as well, best check on the health and safety aspect!

How about posting a board outside of Frome, "it is OK really", that might bring some people in!? Well, until they see the parking prices.

ps. seriously, where is the 45,000 being spent!?
