This week we have taken the P pod out and about on the Age Concern bus.

We have been checking that the wheels on the bus go round and roundand hearing the fascinating tales of the passengers.

We also chat to our driver Graham and the Manager of Age Concern Petersfield, Sheridan.

Along the way we also recall Elsa Bulmer who many of our listeners will remember.

Councillor Jamie Matthews is Petersfield's Town Mayor.

He talks to Mike Waddington in his regular interview with Shine Radio, about how the review of LGR - Local Government Reorganisation - being a good thing because it allows time for other aspects of local decision making - called Asset Based Community Development - to show how it might improve the management of local services.

He also speaks about volunteering, events he's attended, the Christmas Lights Switch On, the High street, the Mayor's Quiz (on 23 March 2027) and his accident on his summer holiday.
