There weren't 100s of ukip supporters probably less than 50
The anti ukip protest was peaceful, good natured and between 600 to 1000. Massively outnumbering the fascists by at least 10:1.
If this was supposed to be about who owns the streets of Sheffield the they are ours.

Really heartening to see so many people out today in Sheffield standing up to the ukip fascists.
Loved the chanting: "There's more of us then there are of you"

Wash day win.
Washing machine was making a funny noise again.
Probably one of my girls' hair clips or a piece of jewellery in the pump again.
But no, £5 it'll tape back together.
Happy days

For sometime I have suspected that I'd somehow fallen into a parallel universe based on all the dystopian fiction I used to read.
However after seeing the eclipse toniht, I'm surprised to find i'm actually trapped in a Terry Pratchett novel

Just look at the government response. How stupid are these people. Surely by now it should be obvious to anyone paying the slightest bit of attention that #Brexit has failed and there's no making it work, there's just struggling dragging the dead weight.
Time to rejoin.

In Sheffield we elect 84 councillors to represent us in local decision making but under a "Strong leader" model only 10 will make all the decisions.
leaving a large chuck of the electorate unrepresented.

This graphic shows how power works in the strong leader model. Your councillor will probably have no more power to influence council decisions than you do!

The frost on the car this morning is amazing.
Looks organic, like a field of white grass.

Today I joined the Sheffield Community Forestry team, part of Sheffield parks and countryside, and helped plant a line of lime trees in Hillsborough park.
Really nice group of people.

I often take the dog a walk past Shepherds Wheel.
It's fascinating to think once this was just one of a series of water wheels on the Porter Brook and was matched by wheels on Sheaf, Rivelin and Don all powering Sheffield's industry.
Many of the mill ponds still exist and are a haven for wildlife.

Great to see this Sheffield feed.
It was bright this morning so we took the dog up Wirlow, had a great run around.
Just made it home before the weather turned.
