00:02 - Some music.
00:06 You know, whether they do a sort of music festival
00:11 or folk festival, something like that.
00:14 That'd be good.
00:15 - That's a good, I think exactly,
00:17 a lot goes off in that.
00:19 And just don't lose it, support it.
00:23 Because things are closing down all over the place.
00:26 - Yeah, absolutely.
00:27 - We enjoy to come.
00:28 - We like coming.
00:29 - Summer type events, celebrating summer
00:33 and family type events.
00:36 Really any events that get people into the town center
00:41 and the market square and using the town's facilities
00:46 and any event really celebrating, you know,
00:50 celebrating Newark.
00:51 So I like the music events you have on,
00:56 like the festivals, the beach.
00:59 More music, I think of different kinds.
01:03 They do often have music here,
01:05 but it would be nice to see, say some violinists
01:10 or cellists because we've got the music school here
01:15 and it would be a good way of promoting the music school.
01:18 Well, anything really, I mean, to appeal to all age groups.
01:28 Obviously the market's important itself.
01:32 It's not an event though, is it?
01:33 I'm sorry, I'm not doing very well.
01:37 - No, no.
01:38 (indistinct)
01:41 (indistinct)
01:44 - I've worked in museums, so we feel like that.
01:46 I know there's a lot of Civil War stuff here already,
01:50 isn't there?
01:51 But you can see a massive piece of Newark's history.
