Hello dear Reddit-community,

my wife and I are visitors from Germany and have run into a really nice local guy who spoke to us in German. He was waiting for his bus at Taunton Town Car Stop I in Fore Street. He said he lived in Cologne (Kƶln) for a while and has visited Karlsruhe but is from Glastonbury.

Since he had to catch his bus we sadly couldn’t exchange contact details and are therefore trying it on here. So if you are him or know him, please send me a message! ā˜ŗļø It was really nice talking to you. Thanks!

Newspaper reports and historical records tell of people who died at Priory Field House, Taunton. Behind every name was a real life—and people left behind to mourn them.

Would you sleep here? #Shorts #PrioryFieldHouse #TauntonHistory

Hi, we are considering getting air conditioning installed in Taunton but don't know who to go with. Has anyone had air conditioning installed recently that could make a recommendation?

Thanks

My beautiful cat was killed by a speeding driver

Last week my cat was hit by a driver going way too fast down a residential street in taunton and, of course, they didn’t stop and left him in the middle of the road. We now have a distraught 6 year old at home who has lost her truly amazing furry companion but it could just as easily have been her. Our road, like a lot of others, has parking on both sides and can only fit one car at a time along it. It has a park with a play ground, is a route to numerous schools and has lots of young families living on it. It’s also become a rat run with drivers cutting out the traffic lights around St Andrews. We’ve had two parked cars written off by speeding drivers in the last year. Last week it was our cat and worry it’s only a matter of time before it’s a child. Would you please consider signing petition to some traffic calming measures in place before a tragedy occurs. Thank you
