After leaving Sam out in the cold last night, I started organising the Offord’s election and dog training early this morning.
I saw our old pony "Sundance" at Fitz Farm this morning who was still very sound.
The news is of a NATO decision to issue an ultimatum to the Bosnian Serbs - withdraw from the edge of Goradsne or have their supply lines and forces bombed
I had been so preoccupied with my telephone calls last night and staying up late to receive and collate canvassing statistics by telephone that I completely forgot to put both the car and Sam away last night. The poor dog was curled up under the rear porch and locked out of his kennel and I only realised when I heard him barking at the milkman when he should normally have been asleep!

Organising the LibDem local elections on a warm and sunny day giving out advice and instruction sheets to the helpers for all of the processes.
We were doing surprisingly well in the new wards of Buckden and Eynesbury, we were sadly lacking as far as canvassing in the villages making up The Offord’s. Then A good long run with Sam in the afternoon
The weather even better than yesterday being both warm and sunny which made a very pleasant surprise. The same morning routine as yesterday so that I was able to join the girls with Sam for the walk to the bus stop. Then on with him to the gravel pits where I achieved a slightly better entry into the water for him which was progress.

Getting the girls back to school after their Easter holiday on a milder day and giving Sam for two walks today. A good visit to Cambridge Street where we are converting the derelict Victorian cottages into modern one-bedroomed flats with three of the four already reserved.
This as Debbie is creating about the arrangements for her birthday and as I took Diana to the cinema to see the historical drama about the Beatles called "Backbeat".
We were all up early today and there was much ado as the girls got ready to go back to school after their Easter holiday. I got out early with Sam so that he was toileted in time to join the girls for the walk to the bus stop. Debbie took his lead as I carried her bag and then Della made a big fuss of him as they were waiting for the bus.

With the weather much improved, after updating my computer journal for these last ten days, I returned to election organising making a number of long telephone calls to our four candidates resolving campaign problems and organising the next stage in the campaign, even chancing upon both of the Tory candidates, Terry Hayward and the young Normington. Also, time for two good sessions with Sam today. The news is still of Bosnia as the world community tries to decide what to do in response to the latest Serb actions.
The weather today was bright and the best for some time and this helped my outside work with Sam and the work of those campaigning in the local elections. But first, after seeing the family off out for the day, I spent the morning and was glad to finish this by lunch time.
