Resuming our customary Tuesday trip to see Di’s parents I Eadon Lilley’s for coffee and to The Copper Kettle for lunch in Cambridge, after dropping off the FOCUS copy for printing to Glisson Road. Some shopping and then to propose an anti-smoking motion to the District Council's Environmental Services Committee this evening.
Today had been a little milder but with showers and we hear that we have already had one of the coldest spells on record for the time of year with frost, even, expected for tonight.
I was a bit groggy this morning after the late night and lack of sleep, but I was nevertheless up and showered for breakfast and then got to my desk to make the necessary corrections to the FOCUS copy, after getting a few calls from my colleagues accordingly. Then, the paper-work complete, I joined Diana for our customary trip to Cambridge, where we took the FOCUS to our Liberal Democrat colleagues for printing. On to Eaden Lilley's for coffee and to meet Diana's mother and then we each did some shopping. I went to get some croquet accessories from Grays, the sports shop, and then some Biology books from Heffer’s for Debbie, and then I met Diana for lunch at the Copper Kettle.

Home via Waresley garden centre and then the rest of this afternoon at my desk trying to catch up on a few more matters before tea and this evening's meeting. I was proposing an anti-smoking motion to the District Council's Environmental Services Committee and obtained a reasonable measure of support. Home to my journal and a relatively early night. Today had been a little milder but with showers and we hear that we have already had one of the coldest spells on record for the time of year with frost, even, expected for tonight.
