All singing from the same Hymn sheet

Posted on 5:51pm Monday 3rd March 2008

This year’s big council tax ‘reveal’ at last week’s Full Council meeting was as I had feared, yet another predictable “it’s nothing to do with us guv”, “it’s all the governments fault” but “aren’t we doing a wonderful job” public proclamation.

"Never Again"

Posted on 2:43pm Friday 25th January 2008

Up until he died, I would regularly visit my wife's Grandfather in Frankfurt.
