RAILWAY STATION After the recent well attended public meeting held in connection with the reintroduction of a railway station in Wellington, it was explained that the aim now was to move to the next stage of an eight stage process of a more detailed feasibility study to look at timetabling and engineering. The estimated cost was between £260,000 and £300,000. Taunton Deane Borough Council had committed £40,000 to this process but, as yet, the other partners had not come up with any funding. The Town Council had previously re-affirmed it strong support for the establishment of a railway station in Wellington and had agreed to earmark £10,000 to be used as a contribution to the cost of the Feasibility Study if and when necessary.

SCHOOL AND NURSERY VISITS Bouncy Bears Nursery visited the Council Chamber on Wednesday 8 June to meet the Mayor of Wellington. The delightful children were very interested in his robes and chain and asked lots of questions. Rockwell Green Primary School’s Year 6 pupils also visited the Council Chamber on Thursday 30 June to find out more about the Mayor of Wellington and the Town Council. They learnt about the role of the Mayor, his robes and chain, the work of the Town Council and its officers. Pupils were told about Twinning, the town crest and the relevance of the symbols within the Town’s history. The 25 pupils asked extremely intelligent and inquisitive questions about Wellington and issues discussed by the Council and were a credit to the school. CIVIC AWARD CEREMONY The Civic Award is now in its 5th year and is supported by the Town Council. It requires pupils from year 6 to learn new skills and aims to show the children the difference they can make to themselves, others and collectively the wider community. The Town Council is delighted to see the scheme grow each year. Pupils from Beechgrove, St John’s and Rockwell Green Primary Schools attended their Civic Award Ceremony at St John’s Church on Friday 8 July where certificates and prizes were handed out by the Mayor

Finger on the Pulse By Councillor Andrew Govier This column is titled ‘Finger on the Pulse’. Well, if you had had your finger on the UK’s pulse over the last few weeks it would be clear that the patient has been through some turmoil! The referendum campaign and outcome have had a tumultuous effect on the nation. As I write this the effects are still being felt and I guess this will be the case for years, even decades to come! I expect that, like most of the rest of the country, Wellington was split down the middle on the issue. The important thing now, as I see it, is that we all work together to ensure that the town and the country’s future is the best that it can be. I hope that we will continue to value the growing diversity that there is within the town and that we will continue to be a friendly and welcoming community. As always transport in and around the town has been a continuing topic of discussions over the last few months. As I said last month we have been waiting to hear back from the County Council on their plans to try to address the congestion problems around the Longforth Road junction. We have now seen these plans and although they won’t completely deal with the problem they should make a noticeable difference. It is expected that the queues will effectively be halved and it is hoped the changes will be implemented in the autumn. There is less positive news on the Town Council’s plans to introduce an evening bus service. We asked the County Council to get costings for us for two extra services between Wellington and Taunton from Monday to Saturday and also for just Friday and Saturday evenings. Sadly, following the demise of Webberbus, we only have one local provider and First group have come back with figures that I regard as exorbitant. They wanted nearly £40k to run the full service! Although the council hasn’t made the final decision, I’m almost certain that we won’t be progressing this proposal. We will need to look at other alternatives to see if there is any way that this important service could be restored. Despite this setback the Town Council is continuing to look at ways of developing services that will make the town better. We recently agreed to provide funding to the Wellington One. I have mentioned this initiative before but it is going from strength to strength. It brings together the police; local councils; schools; the children’s centre and it deals with a wide range of issues including housing; debt and anti-social problems. The group meets twice a week to deal with operational issues and one a month with a wider group to develop a community develop plan. We have now appointed a new co-ordinator and I am delighted that we have an excellent one in Peter Joint. Peter has worked at the children’s centre for a number of years and knows our community well. As usual there have been a number of successful events in the town over the summer organised by volunteers. We are very fortunate that we have so many people who are prepared to give up their time to bring enjoyment to others. There are the regular events like the entertainment organised by the Friends of Wellington Park, Wellington Carnival Committee, Wellington Silver Band and Wellistock. In addition, Project Wellington organise their fun days and these will be taking place on Wednesdays throughout the school holidays. The events give families with young children positive things to do. Churches Together organise the Big Tent holiday camp and Howard Road community event. Let’s hope and pray that the sun shines on these and all the other events in the town! Many thanks to all concerned and those I have forgotten to mention. If you would like to raise any issues with me about matters contained in the article or other concerns then please feel free to ring me on 667589 or email me on ajgovier@somerset.gov.uk .

Discovering the ultimate X-Over with the Nissan X-Trail There are some real perks to running a magazine and getting to drive new cars in order to do a review is certainly one of them. Andy Bowrah, the Sales Manager at Wellington Motors, is always delighted to let me borrow a new car for a couple of days so that I can write a review. Although I am a fan of Nissan’s having owned two I do try to be honest in reviews and point out things about the cars that I don’t like. I am also a fan of Wellington Motors. They are extremely professional and very helpful in all departments and I have never felt pressured by the sales team. Their view is that they have a great product that will sell itself so their role is to answer your questions, facilitate your test drives and do the paperwork. Wellington Motors also have a great after-sales service so that you feel special even after you have made your purchase. However, don’t take my word for it if, having read my review, you feel you would like to try an X-Trail or other Nissan go and ask Andy if you can take it out for a run - not just for a few miles but ask to borrow it for a few hours so that you can look at it properly. Now let us have a look at the new X-Trail. I had a previous model which I was delighted with. It was much boxier to look at and primarily more of a workhorse off-roader than the current model, which on first impressions seems like a larger version of the Quashqai. I loved my X-Trail for its space and versatality but did find the straight seats hurt my back on long drives. and although I had it for 3 years, it was the main reason why we sold it. That is certainly not a problem with the new model whose level of comfort and room both in the front and the back is more akin to the Quashqai which is famed for its comfort. It is also very easy to get in and out with extra wide opening doors and the step up is much lower than previous X-Trails. This makes quite a difference if you are older or for those with young children. Equipment levels even in the basic model are very high and the touchscreen is remarkably simple to operate which is not always the case. I personally find that touchscreen systems in cars can be too complicated and therefore distract the driver from the road ahead. The X-Trail has a clear, precise screen which I quickly felt comfortable with. I also loved the surround view cameras which made parking easy and almost makes the auto parking system redundant. This is a roomy car with tons of legroom and headroom which I find important as I have long legs and Mrs C is a taller lady sat down - if that makes sense! The boot as you can see is enormous and can be configured as a seven-seater. Although the third row of seats are really only suitable for children the seats are tiered to give everyone a decent view.. One complaint I had with my previous X-Trail was the running costs and I had mine converted to LPG to improve the economy. The diesel front wheel drive version of the new X-Trail claims a very acceptable 57 mpg with the all rear drive version just slightly worse. Annual road tax falls into Band D (£110) and Band F (£145) respectively. I found the drive on the straight very comfortable and for a big car it has good if not startling acceleration, excellent visibility and provides a smooth ride with a light touch that feels safe and controlled. and on country roads it held its line well on bends and the roll that was evident in its predecessor is much reduced. In summary the X-Trail is a lovely car to drive and has more room, equipment and comfort than most SUVs. Do not ake my word for it pop into Wellington Motors and have a look for yourself. Richard Coupe, 30

The Foot Health Centre
Grind your trash tonne total down to size By Nick Cater It is a bit like going to your local doctor for a quick annual health check, expecting no problems and suddenly finding out that your true weight needs to be measured in tonnes rather than kilos or pounds and ounces. For those living in and around Wellington, a key figure extracted from the mass of numbers in what could be called Somerset’s State of Waste – an annual report summarising statistics on all aspects of rubbish and recycling – is the “total arisings” per household. That is the average total amount of waste each household produces, including all the rubbish and recycling that is collected at the kerbside or taken to the recycling centre at Poole or any of the county’s 15 other recycling sites. So in 2015-16, on average the total amount each household recycled or chucked in its rubbish bin or black sacks went up to a shocking 1,026.28 kgs – well over a tonne, or 257,420 tonnes for all of Somerset. Every kilo or ounce of your household’s tonne produces climate changing carbon in its manufacture, processing and transport, and every gramme or pound of it costs you money through your council tax to recycle or discard into landfill, from the cost of collection to the tax you pay to bury your waste in the Somerset countryside. The fact that Somerset’s recycling rate has risen again, to 52.85%, does not in any way let anyone in Wellington off the hook, for the waste hierarchy makes it clear that the priority is to reduce waste, then to reuse items – giving stuff a second life through such means as selling it, revamping outfits, arranging repairs or donating them to charity – and almost finally to recycle. If you would like to cut your weight on the earth back and bit, here is a five-point plan of easy steps to help slim your tonne down to size: • Check your rubbish bin and recycling boxes to see what you are regularly discarding that you could avoid buying again or cut back. • Consider whether what you are discarding or recycling could be sold, given away, donated, swapped, repaired or revamped and so not end up in the bin. • Find ways to hire, borrow or share items, big and small, or buy far better by shopping smarter so that whatever you get will work well and last far longer. • Buy less food (banish bogoffs), cook less food (precise portions, please), and eat less food (pile not your plate) – all of which may help you waste less food. • Where you can, keep life light: reject complex packaging not recycled at the kerbside, from overwrapped goods to anything not among the dozen or so materials collected each week; go for glass, cans, plastic bottles if possible. And why not keep a diary to both remind you of your waste priorities and see how much

Janey Lee Grace (BBC Radio 2)
“I’m passionate about 100% natural health and well-being - it’s so valuable for people to take responsibility for their health. I gave birth in a fabulous hospital where the midwives prescribed homeopathy during labour.” Gaby Roslin (TV presenter) “Many visits to the homeopath with excellent outcomes have convinced me of the e ff e c t i v e n e s s o f h o m e o p at h y. I t h a s a tremendous amount to offer everyone in Britain.” Annabel Croft (tennis player) “Homeopathy has worked wonders for me personally and I cannot deny its effectiveness.”
✴ It is a well-regulated and safe form of medicine with little or no side-effects ✴ Homeopathy has been established and reÞned for over 200 years ✴ 70% of those that use homeopathy experience improvements in health4 1. The World Health Organisation. 2. British Homeopathic Association, Mathie, R. The Research Evidence Base for Homeopathy, 2009. 3.

My experience of Buddhism Ron Bennett
Apart from impure or pure perceptions of the mind, nobody can bind you or set you free. ( A very ancient Buddhist teaching from Tibet, passed on by lamas) It appears Buddhism was firmly planted on this planet some 5,000 years ago by Gautama Siddhartha, a prince, when he became enlightened in Bodihgaya in India. Also it appears to be one of the fastest growing religions all over the world in this present day society. When I first came across Buddhism some 35 years ago, I found it very weird. I went to the monasteries looking for male mentors in monks to shape myself by. I bumped into my now long-dear friend,Thitadhammo. A monk, who unwrapped it very gently, a stage at a time. So Buddhism is about transforming the mind, which has two aspects, one we know about which is the conceptual mind, which keeps us narrow and judgemental, which grasps and frets about the past or the future.The other aspect of the mind, which most of us do not know about, is the intrinsic true nature of the mind, which is the union of emptiness and clarity. So the Buddhists approach to discover this state of mind, is by using the three wisdom tools: meditation, contemplation and reflection. So what is meditation? It is simply expanding the gaps between thoughts, by bringing the mind home and turning the seat of consciousness inwards.There are many ways to meditate, the most popular one is putting your attention on your breath. Every time the mind gets distracted you bring it back to the breath, you do not follow the thoughts, you leave them alone, every time you bring the mind back, that is awareness.You do this with the eyes open, resting the mind on a picture, or a flower, or a view.Then slowly, over time, as your practice deepens, you start to break the chain of delusion where one thought goes into another thought, and the mind is idling away either in the past or the future. There is always a gap between thoughts, yet most of us miss it completely because the conceptual mind likes to be immersed in something.Yet that gap is so precious, as it is the gateway to complete freedom.The true nature of our mind is pristine awareness, free of all the contracts set up by the Ego. It is just clear light that sees all, and is free of duality. It does not judge, compare or grasp at things. And in this state the wisdom and compassion start arriving in your heart and you start experiencing a much deeper reality of being human. Also, as we transform our minds, we start transforming our perceptions, as they are intimately linked together.When our emotions are running us, we only see 10% of reality. So the benefits from Buddhism are enormous, passed down over thousands of years directly, from one master to another, firm instructions on how to purify the mind. It actually is a science of the mind. Of all the things I have attempted to do in this life-time, the most precious and rewarding has been training my mind to be utterly present, and when it happens, it adds a magic to life, a freshness, an openness and a humour.When I was a young man, my mind was so neurotic and painful to live with. Through my diligent practice of meditation, a stability has arrived in my mind that has enabled me to be more effective as a person, where I respond instead of react, and whatever I do my mind is very concentrated on the present moment. O do not alter, do not alter this mind of ours. Do not stir it, do not stir it, leave it alone, and it will become clear like water. (Another ancient teaching always strongly emphasised by my teacher Sogyal Rinpoche)

7 Cornhill, Wellington 01823 662260 email: info@kingscycles.co.uk Web: kingscycles.co.uk Kings Cycles have a great range of electric bikes and are specialist stockists of FreeGo from the Folder to the FreeGo Eagle which is the choice of many Police Forces. The FreeGo Folder (pictured opposite) will fit in almost any car boot and is ideal for commuters as it can be carried on to the train and up to the office easily. I had a week’s free trial of the Eagle which has superb acceleration and powerful hill climbing. The Eagle (pictured below) has hydraulic brakes, front and rear, high quality front suspension and puncture resistant tyres. It is fun and comfortable to ride and I loved the Eagle’s ability to pull away from traffic lights faster than most cars, which made it feel very safe and easy to ride. The Eagle comes in a step-through and with a crossbar. I found the former very easy to mount especially when carrying a load on the back or if fitted with saddlebags. But why go for an electric bike? Yes they are easier to ride as the extra push you get from the battery can propel you along at 15 mph and gives a huge boost when going up hills and pulling away from a standing start. You do still have to pedal so you are getting exercise as well as fresh air and you have quality gears and different power levels to give you control. You also still feel fresh when you arrive and therefore for commuting or heading to a meeting you can travel in better clothes without feeling like a washed out rag when you arrive. The Eagle, like all FreeGo bikes is powered by Lithium batteries which are lightweight, quick to recharge, have long distance capability and are designed to last for several years. When purchasing a FreeGo electric bike you get the choice of either a 10 Amp/Hour battery which typically has a range of 25 - 40 miles or a 16 AH battery that has a range of 35-60 miles. The range depends on how hilly the terrain, weight carried, how much peddling you do and the age of the battery. A full charge will take 4 to 6 hours on a normal household supply and the battery can be charged on the bike or can be taken off for convenience. FreeGo recommend that you top up the battery every time you finish using it so that you are always ready to go. My cycling on my hybrid non-electric bike is now restricted to 3 or 4 miles around town,.When I borrowed the Eagle I found it so easy I wanted to go further and a run into Taunton and back is well within range. But don’t take my word for it Dennis King will be delighted to let you have a trial of an electric bike so that you can see whether it suits you and he often has special offers and occasionally second hand bikes at great prices.

The Old Brick Workshop The Old Brick Workshop is a vibrant space for creative industries in Wellington. It houses nine artist’s studios, a community space and now a contemporary art gallery. The building is found on a small rural industrial estate next door to Viridor and not far from Poole waste recycling. Maybe not the obvious place to find an art gallery and studios but once inside it has a quiet, calm atmosphere that lends itself to industrious creativity. It’s a spacious, versatile building over two stories that is now being utilised by many local people within many different creative fields. The concept for The Old Brick Workshop was brought together by artist and local business woman Alison Cosserat. She discovered the building while searching for new premises for her gilding and restoration business. The building was far too large for her purpose but had such massive potential it was an opportunity not to be missed. Alison felt sure there must be other creatives out there needing space. Her aim was to develop a much needed artistic hub for the local community. Alison’s risk has certainly paid off as all the art studios are fully occupied, the community room is now being utilised regularly and the gallery has hosted a variety of interesting and diverse exhibitions. The first year of the project involved a lot of renovation of the rather neglected and down at heal building. Originally part of the historic Poole Brickworks and more recently Viridor offices, the building was certainly in need of some love and attention. Alison started work creating the upstairs studios, putting up walls, building doorways, and covering the insipid yellow walls with vast amounts of white paint. Downstairs walls were demolished, damp was tackled, ceilings plastered and floors replaced. Lighting and hanging systems were installed and the gallery was born. The gallery opened just in time for Somerset Art Weeks Festival 2015, and was a tremendous success with over 800 visitors through the door. Now one year on, the nine member artists are getting ready for this years Open Studios 2016 which runs from the 17th of September through to the 2nd of October.Venue number 202. Not only will the artists once again be exhibiting in the gallery and throughout the building, they will also be opening their own studios allowing you a glimpse into their creative processes. This year The Old Brick Workshop is also delighted to be host venue to one of SAW’s Creative Pathways artists. Out of the many artists who applied for this bursary it was Bristol based artist,Veronia Gayle, who won the opportunity to exhibit alongside the member artists.Veronia creates colourful abstract collages, paintings and drawings inspired by surrounding environment. Her practice is based on the experimental exploration of the ambiguous abstract nature of form, line and texture. She is going to be resident in a pop up studio during the Open Studios event and will be leading some printing workshops and a collaborative community art project throughout the two weeks. Other opportunities being offered at The Old Brick Workshop include an art club run every Friday morning, willow workshops available during the summer holidays, an art course starting in October and printmaking and life drawing classes coming soon. The gallery is also available for group, joint or solo exhibitions. For more information you can visit the website www.theoldbrickworkshop.com or email Alison directly at alison@theoldbrickworkshop.com The Old Brick Workshop is an exciting ‘work in progress’ and will continue to adapt, change and develop alongside its occupants and the creative community who use and enjoy it.
OPEN STUDIOS 2016 September 17th - October 2nd • 11am - 6pm A mixed exhibition of work by member artists of the Old Brick Workshop. Also featuring the work of emerging artist Veronia Gayle, selected by SAW for Creative Pathways 2016. www.theoldbrickworkshop.com • venue number 202

parishes around Wellington, stretching as far as Wiveliscombe and Bathealton. But 25 years later in 1974, local government was reorganised; the WRDC and WUDC were abolished and virtually all their major functions passed on to the new Taunton Deane Borough Council.
The third chapter in the life of The Grange began when a new company, Abbeyfield (Wellington) affiliated to the national Abbeyfield Society, converted the building to house 8 older residents in a sheltered accommodation scheme. Unfortunately, conversion suffered a set back when the roof caught fire causing a major incident - but the scheme was formally opened on 19 June 1976 by Viscount Amory. Now, 40 years later, Abbeyfield (Wellington) can no longer carry on and the residents have moved out.

Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hope that the building finds a suitable new role and remains a landmark building that adds interest to Wellington's street scene.

TTT Tim’s Technology Tips What In The World Is Wikipedia?
Articles by Tim Finch 07514 059313 www.Taunton.IT
Every now and again something genuinely useful comes along on the Internet and Wikipedia is one of them. Most people discover Wikipedia by accident - perhaps when searching the Internet for some information. But what is it? And where did it come from? Wikipedia is an Online Encyclopedia - i.e. it is just like a printed encyclocpedia but accessed through your computer or tablet. Wikipedia started in 2001 and today has over 5,000,000 articles in English on just about every topic you can imagine. So, you might be asking me, how much does it cost to use? (Few people are willing to buy the Encyclopedia Britannica). Well, err, nothing, is the answer. In fact Wikipedia is remarkable in a technology environment in that it is in the top 10 of websites used daily (no mean feat these days) and yet it contains no adverts like virtually every other site. It runs periodic fund raising campaigns, asking visitors to voluntarilty donate a small amount. So who writes the encyclopedia? WikiPedia is maintained by an organisation called WikiMedia - a non profit organisation in the USA. As of 2015 they employed about 280 people. However, and perhaps the most controversial aspect of Wikipedia over the years, is that the vast majority of the articles are written by you and me - the readers. In fact, just about anyone who can access Wikipedia is also permitted to edit Wikipedia. This might shock you - you can be forgiven for thinking “Isn’t that a disaster waiting to happen?”. But, oddly, the peer-review and correction nature of Wikipedia seems to work. You can’t get away for very long editing a document with false or biased information as others will simply correct it again. There is a dispute process that can be engaged if collaborative authors just disagree over a point, however. So how do you access Wikipedia? You can read the encyclopedia on any modern technology device - Smartphone, Tablet, Laptop or Computer. You can install the ‘app’ version of Wikipedia on a tablet/phone - which I think makes it a bit easier to use on those devices. On a laptop or computer you would open your ‘browser’ programme (Internet Explorer/Edge, Chrome, Firefox or Safari - depending on your model of computer) and type in en.wikipedia.org note there is no www at the start. Then, type in the subject you want to look up, in the Search box at the top of the Wikipedia page and click the magifier symbol. Results will show up and hopefully the page you’re after! Enjoy.
