I spent the morning and afternoon clearing paperwork and writing letters/paying bills, even though it was another fine and sunny day. Later, I supervised Daniel for another driving lesson whilst posting my letters and stopping off to see my new Southoe Post Office volunteer before attending a meeting which adopted a Neighbourhood Watch Scheme; both developments I have encouraged for the good of my constituents
This was another fine and sunny day which was a great distraction to my main task of trying to get more up-to-date with my paperwork. I worked all morning and afternoon clearing my papers and writing letters/paying bills etc., until I had quite a pile of letters to post and a much clearer desk to work on. Then, once Daniel was home, I took him for a driving lesson and posted the letters at the main sorting office and directly at other addresses in St Neots. This evening, I drove over to Southoe for the Annual Parish Meeting and stopped off to visit Mrs Cotton of Lees Lane, who I have persuaded to take over the village Post Office as a community service. At the meeting itself, the attendance was good, and the meeting adopted a Neighbourhood Watch Scheme to prevent crime and create a more safe and secure environment. Together with the Parish Meeting the other day, it is good to see such community spirit’s emerging and I have encouraged this. Southoe has already improved since I became its District Councillor and I am proud of this fact.
