Independent Cllr for Colwick, Gedling. Standing up for freedom, peace and human rights. Also expect knitting, allotment and Iron Maiden. Ipswich Town fan (for my sins)
Busy Cllr life day. Started off with some litter picking this morning before visiting the NetherFest community event this afternoon. Opted not to get my face painted though :-)

Ray Crawford hit two goals for Town at Portman Road to beat Aston Villa and secure the Division One Championship title, way before the inception of the Premier League.
Ironically, it was on April 28 in 1999 that Sir Alf passed away, aged 79.

The result out of session in Netherfield today. Fly tipping collected for reporting and 17 bags of rubbish collected by the team. We also swept the play area on Deabill Street removing all of the glass.

Thanks to the team this morning, and for all the residents who stopped to talk.

I'm proud to be running on my record both in Colwick and Netherfield. Being part of the community is a vital part of being a Cllr, not just turning up to point at potholes at election time. If I'm fortunate enough to be elected on 1 May I'll be taking the same approach to the whole of Carlton East.

Ever wonder how much would ever be “enough”? And what will the money be coming from?
