WHAT a shame that Embsay's Parish Council's plan for a clock in the splendid village hall to mark the millennium has been abandoned due to opposition. It sounds like a perfect idea to us, yet once again an elected body has tried to push forward an idea only to be knocked back. Never mind, the people of Embsay will mark the Millennium by, well, by putting a railing round a tree. Future generations will be mightily impressed at Embsay's bold vision for the future.
