Sounds like Shambles is getting through to him. I love that "I have to say I am very disappointed in the contents of your letter. We are obviously going nowhere..."

Sounds like an exasperated headmaster to a stroppy fifth former.

In a PM to Shambles I have suggested that: I think that with Christmas rushing up would be timely to seek clarification as to whether carol singers in public places, such as doorsteps, are required to have PELs. And if not on what grounds does Weymouth feel able to waive the law in such cases in light of their claim that they are not allowed to have any discretion in such matters?

And also it sounds from the letter that he isn't aware that (if I understand the situation correctly) the PEL at The Cove means that the pub would be restricted from having Morris Dancers more than on one occasion in the year - and once again, woith Christmas coming up, any kind of Mummers would clearly be illegal.

I suppose the letter back could ask him to confirm that since the suggestion that Morris Dancing is being restricted is "outrageous" it is correct to undserstand that there are no such restrictions in place.
