After a brief walk for Sam and a host of financial chores, more Election work in Buckden and Offord on another nice day, supervision canvassing and reconciling styles and objectives.
The first day in the South African elections today which was a poignant and historic event. This day the elderly, infirm and security forces vote in the first of three.
Another nice day for the election and I started it by contacting Derek with a further briefing on Buckden issues. A quick run for Sam after which I left him in the garden sun whilst I drove into St Neots and spent the morning there.

Taking Sam to the school bus stop with Della on a nice, sunny and warm morning and then working him at Molesworth, checking in with fellow LibDems on Election work and hearing of Nigel's mistress revelations.
The UN/NATO ultimatum to the Bosnian Serbs has worked and now they must withdraw even further from Goradsne.
It was to be a full day but nice, sunny and warm to make it worthwhile. Out with Sam early and to the bus stop with the girls where Della enjoyed making a fuss of him now he is much calmer and more steady in her hands. I took him on to Molesworth and ran him across the fields there; keeping him under much closer control and using a variety of tactics to keep him watching me and taking notice of my instructions.

A dry and sunny day to recover, training Sam under close control across the river in Mill Meadow to make him more responsive. Then showing him work and play some tricks for the little boy opposite. Then to my office to make a couple of long telephone calls about the campaign and then update this last couple of days' journal.
I had trouble getting to sleep as I was full and hot from a late meal and outside day with mind full of political campaigns and dog training. Even so, I was awake early and got Diana and I our morning drinks so that I could get going. It started and so I launched a dinghy and transported Sam across to Mill Meadow for some quartering practice.

A short run for Sam in the rain before driving off to the Woodall Park Spring Pointing. Both Jim’s Ben and my Sam ran poorly. Home via our election district to hear that Norwich lost another football match.
We heard that the Bosnian Serbs seem to be pulling back from a final assault on Goradsne following the latest UN/NATO threats of air strikes
It was after 7.00am by the time Diana called me with my morning tea because she now takes the view that Debbie can get herself up for school on a Saturday. I was troubled to see that it was pouring with rain and had some difficulty finding a dry spell to give Sam a small run before I had eaten my breakfast and loaded him into the car ready to go.
