Election Campaign Begins ….

For some or many apathy or disinterest in all elections no matter…. only about 30% at best bother to exercise their right to vote.

My campaign begins for Fenland District Council – Whittlesey South Ward.
The Parish/Town Ward has already been decided (see last weeks posts)

I am not here to bash any other candidates or parties, that said if I see there are mistakes or ‘spin’ in their material I will bring it to this forum.

2181 houses in Whittlesey South – my team supporting me will do their best to deliver a leaflet to most.
Please remember I am the only present Councillor and Candidate who keeps the electorate informed on what is happening both at Whittlesey Town Council and within the Community. No adverts – No Pop-Ups, just facts on this Web-blog.
A few have Facebook or other Social Media – but no where near as extensive as this site.

Below is my campaign leaflet.
This is the print version which is A3

Mayors Charity Duck Race – The Bower – Easter Monday

I joined other Councillors yesterday  promoting the Mayors Duck Race and selling the ‘Raffle Tickets’ – all in a good cause for local charities.
Why not come along on Easter Monday and join in with many Families and Children….
You can buy a ‘Ticket’ on the day -….- If there are any left…?

Swimming Pool Issues

Last Monday various bits broke down around the heating system, by Thursday I understand that an engineer had been to identify the fault(s) the call out fee I was told in the region of £400:00 – which I will be making enquiries about.

Easter Holidays in the way and then at the mercy of parts and deliveries.
When I was the Senior Engineer for Disney – If if wasn’t fixed within 24 hours you were on the next plane home…..!!!
I was in the pool yesterday Friday and is was ‘cool’ but not cold and once going was OK.
It takes 4 hours to heat the pool by a ½ a degree….
Refreshing is the word.
