So what does 5 1/2 day trading mean, as in which are the 5 1/2 days the market will be open and when will it be closed?

Three of the four Independents abstained, with Cllr Parkins of Huncoat voting in favour. Cllr Britcliffe and Cllr Pam Barton left the room because of personal interests in the Market Hall, as per the rules.
5-and-a-half day trading means closing at 1pm on Wednesdays. I did point out that if the Conservative group was so cocksure of the number of traders in favour then there was little harm in allowing a democratic recorded vote. That didn't go down terribly well either and I was accused of being dictatorial to the traders.
The irony!
