A sunny morning for the Kimbolton school swimming sports event where Debbie competed but came last in the breaststroke swimming, but received her class price for academic progress, which made Diana very proud. Both the Rolls-Royce and The Lady were dealt with in our absence before I attended a Planning Committee meeting in Huntingdon this evening to consider the new Draft Local Plan. Not being allowed to speak, I brief the press anyway as a National Rail Strike took place today and the stock exchange was full of bids and deals
On a warm and sunny day, we went to Kimbolton school to the swimming sports in the morning and speech day/prize-giving in the afternoon. We were proud to have Debbie competing (but coming last) in the swimming race for breaststroke and to see her receive her prize for academic progress for her class. Diana has always wanted to see a child do this. Alec Norman arrange for the collection of the Rolls-Royce while we are away, and The Lady was also craned out at Buckden and transported to Norfolk in our absence!

This evening, I attended the meeting of the Huntingdonshire District Council’s Planning Committee called to consider a new draft Local Plan. I was not allowed to speak on Little Paxton matters, but influenced the meeting and briefed the press for a good story anyway. The news today was all about the National Rail Strike, which was solid, and the political posturing. The stock exchange was full of bids and deals.
