I had three replies all wishing we had a court. I will put you all together and see what happens! Again, thank you for responding

If you would ,make use of the tennis court, please comment below.

Is anyone interested in setting up a group to look into the feasibility of providing a tennis court in the village? I have heard from a few who would really enjoy to have a court here.
​

I had several responses and all were very positive, good speeds and a reliable service. Thank you for your replies.

How are people finding the speed of this service these days? Has it lived up to its claims of consistent high speed internet? Email newsletter with your views.
